334 - When did you wake up
Listening to the familiar cries and begging for mercy, Nurhari felt an inexplicable sense of comfort.
It's been three years, and I've heard this pleasant voice again.
His soldiers slaughtered the people of Longyou with impunity, blood all over the ground, and flames broke out.
Nurhari enjoys it, and it gives him a sense of being in his own hands.
"Here's a letter, my lord, that it is for you."
At that moment, a soldier trotted over to Nurhari and delivered a letter.
"For the king?" Nurhari wondered.
As he spoke, he opened the letter and looked at it, and after reading it, he was shocked: "What about the person who sent the letter?" โ
"Let's go, let's go."
"Gone? Where did the people go? โ
The little soldier looked at Nurhari's tyrannical gaze, and hurriedly shook his head in fear: "No, no, I don't know. โ
"Waste."
Pushing away the little soldiers, Nurhari took a deep breath, hurriedly shouted that someone brought his horse, and then turned over, no one was allowed to follow, and went all the way out of Longyou City.
About two or three miles out of the city, Nurhari saw a man in his thirties waiting on the side of the road, and when he saw the man, Nurhari smiled, stopped his horse, and after getting down, he went all the way: "Good brother, I haven't seen you for a long time." โ
The man who was called a brother by Nurhari glanced at him indifferently and said coldly: "Nurhari, you are so capable, let you lead the troops eastward, but not let you burn and loot. โ
Nurhari shrugged his shoulders: "Don't say that, you know, in order to help you, I let go of Yu Yumo's henchman, and give me some compensation in general." โ
When the man heard this, he pointed at Nurhari and said, "This is not a reason for you to harm the people of Suiyang. โ
Nurhari didn't care, waved his hand and smiled: "Okay, okay, there are no outsiders here, you don't have to pretend to be so righteous and awe-inspiring, those people, this king killed them, what's the matter, can you still resurrect them." โ
"Hmph, I'm just afraid that you will kill so many people, and when the time comes, when you are surrounded and suppressed by the Sui Yang army, there will be no reason to live." The man said.
Nurhari sighed: "Is there any movement in Daxing City?" โ
The man nodded: "Just yesterday, Zhao Ningbing ordered troops from the school, and the reinforcements sent from Daxing City were already on the way. โ
Nurhari frowned and asked, "Who is the commander of the army and how many troops are there?" โ
The man did not hide it at all: "Lu Gongyou, the commander of the army, with 40,000 foot soldiers." โ
Nurhari immediately burst into laughter: "Just 40,000 foot soldiers, and you also want to take down my 130,000 cavalry?" Zhao Ningbing, that girl is crazy. โ
The man scolded: "Don't take it lightly, this time the commander of the troops, but Lu Gongyou, not other stinky fish and rotten shrimp." โ
Nurhari's face was full of indifference: "What about Lu Gongyou, even if he is he, with 40,000 foot soldiers, how can he be my Nurhari's opponent." โ
The man laughed: "Ten years ago, Helian Weiwu also thought so, but as a result, 70,000 cavalry were beaten by Lu Gongyou's 30,000 infantry, Nurhari, do you think that your 130,000 cavalry is more capable of fighting than the elite iron cavalry of Nanting, or do you think that you have surpassed the third place in the heavenly list Helian Weiwu?" โ
A speech, said that Nurhari was red-eared.
The man continued: "The purpose of letting you send troops is to lure Lu Gongyou away from Daxing City, now it's good, you did it, but remember that against Lu Gongyou, you just need to hold on, and you must not give Lu Gongyou any chance, understand?" โ
Nurhari was a little impatient: "This king has been fighting for so many years, I don't need your orders, I know how to do it." โ
The man said resolutely: "You have to listen to me, you don't know the name of Lu Wuving, you fight him, you have no chance of winning, you can only hold on, otherwise, I tried my best to steal the defense line map of Yongliang Erzhou to you?" โ
Seeing that Nurhari still looked unconvinced, the man shouted: "Over the years, have you lost to Lu Gongyou less?" Why, do you want to give him your head this time? โ
Nurhari blushed for a long time, and finally shouted in frustration: "This king listens to you." โ
The man's expression softened.
Nurhari asked, "How long will the king hold out?" โ
The man shook his head: "I don't know, just use your full strength to persevere, it's best, we can attract more soldiers and horses from Daxing City, in that way, our chances of success will be greater." โ
Nurhari said, "After you have done something, you will not forget the benefits of this king, right?" โ
The man glanced at Nurhari: "No. โ
"This king is relieved."
The man waved his robe: "Okay, I'll go first, if there is any news, I will inform you as soon as possible." โ
"Slow down and don't send it."
The two separated, Nurhari looked at the man's distant back, a trace of gloom flashed on his face, snorted a sneer, turned around and got on the horse and returned to Longyou City.

In Daxing City, it has been four or five days since Lu Gongyou sent out his troops, and the empress was busy with the things in hand, drinking tea, watching Narcissus lightly click on the excerpts of military supplies, and asked: "These days, how is the resettlement of refugees in various places?" โ
Narcissus put down his work and reported truthfully: "Back to Your Majesty, all parts of Sizhou are overcrowded, and there are still many refugees from Yongliang and the victims of the six southern provinces are pouring in. โ
The empress sighed: "It's also my negligence, I was thinking about how to control the water in the six southern provinces, but I forgot to comfort the victims, otherwise, there would not have been a disaster victim from the six southern provinces going north at this juncture." โ
"That's right, Narcissus."
"Your Majesty, you command."
"Isn't the refugee settlement in the west of Daxing City empty now?"
Narcissus nodded: "Since Wang Xiaolai moved the population to Echo Valley, it has been abandoned for two months. โ
The empress thought for a while: "Empty is also empty, where to settle a group of disaster victims first, in addition, notify the two prefectures of Qingdao and Henan, open the border, and let the officers and soldiers take the lead to accept refugees." โ
Narcissus showed hesitation on his face: "Your Majesty, Yuzhou is fine, Qingzhou's words..."
"What's wrong with Qingzhou?" The Empress asked.
"Qingzhou is the birthplace of the Qingzhou Party, will they obstruct this matter..."
The empress frowned: "They dare, who dares to disobey my orders?" Narcissus, immediately draft the decree, if there is a person who does not respect the decree, it will be regarded as a major crime of rebellion, and the nine clans will be killed. โ
"Yes."
When the empress finished her order, she took another sip of tea.
"Your Majesty, Weichen has another suggestion." Narcissus Road.
The empress glanced at Narcissus: "Speak." โ
"Wang Xiaolai's Echo Valley can also accommodate a lot of refugees, he has been looking for you to ask for someone at the beginning, why not take advantage of the present to move the refugees over?"
"How many people are there in Echo Valley right now?"
Narcissus thought about the message sent by Lily: "There are about seventy or eighty thousand, but Echo Valley was expanded according to the scale that can accommodate 100,000 people at the beginning, and it is not a problem to squeeze it, and it is not a problem to accommodate 150,000 or 60,000, it is better to..."
Without waiting for Narcissus to finish speaking, the empress directly refused: "No." โ
Narcissus looked up in amazement.
The empress said: "Narcissus, it's just an outsider, don't you know, what secrets exist in Echo Valley, in case someone has a lot of eyes, they see it, and leak it out, have you considered the consequences?" โ
"But there are too many refugees right now."
"That's not going to work, I've sent my will to Echo Valley, ordering the valley to be sealed off and no more refugees allowed to enter, understand?" Empress Dao.
Narcissus had no choice but to obey: "Yes." โ
Seeing the empress stand up, Narcissus asked in surprise, "Your Majesty, where are you going?" โ
The empress stretched: "I haven't been to Xiao Laizi for seven or eight days, I will go and see if he has woken up." โ
"Your Majesty, the minister will accompany you."
"No, you can get busy first, and I'll just go by myself."
When the empress said this, Narcissus was helpless, so she had to nod and say, "Obey." โ
All the way to the Chengqian Palace, the empress walked to the gate of the palace, and before she could enter, she heard the sound of turning over boxes and cabinets in the palace, in that row of rooms.
The empress said in her heart, did she meet a thief?
She asked about the Yulin army guarding at the gate, and those Yulin soldiers also replied that no one had entered or left the Chengqian Palace these days.
Curious, the empress took those Yulin soldiers at the door, quietly entered the Chengqian Palace, followed the voice, came to the door, stretched out three fingers, and recited three times silently, and the empress shouted: "Do it." โ
At the same time as the words fell, the door was directly slammed open by Yu Linjun, and the empress flashed in and shouted: "What person! โ
The man in the room turned around and looked at the empress blankly, with an embarrassed expression: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you are here." โ
The empress looked at the man and was shocked: "Little Laizi, when did you wake up?" โ
