Chapter 004: Human Words Are Terrifying
Give a dog a bad name and hang him
The explanation that "people are in danger and will not be saved when they see death" made several officials present noncommittal and morally unjustifiable, but they were completely correct in their countermeasures. The food brought is limited, the medicinal materials are limited, there are wounded in the city, there are refugees in the state, and the materials are limited, of course, they must be used by those who need them. Therefore, when excavating the victims, when they encountered those who were worse than death and had little hope of resurrection, they directly stabbed them to death, so as not to let them suffer alive.
Because it was only an earthquake, the money, goods, and food buried in the house could still be used, so some people were specially organized to find some clothes, belongings, and food supplies when excavating the ruins. So there are fewer people to rescue. Now, the clothes and food used by the refugees are all found from under the tiles, otherwise there would have been no food for 10,000 stone for so many people. I also found a few medicinal herb shops about medicinal materials, and the stock was used up, but it was still not enough. Regarding the fire, Guishan did not admit that he had let him put it.
Guishan, this time I finally know what it means to think twice before acting, and I am cautious in my words. He kept kneeling on the ground and didn't dare to raise his head, Jiachen didn't squeak, and returned to his previous indifferent and speechless appearance. No one else dared to say anything.
When the military general Meng Feilong heard Gui Shan say this, he was shocked in his heart, thinking Gui Shan, Gui Shan, if you make some small mistakes, I can still say a few good words for you, even if you beat the soldiers and take advantage of the difficulties to make a fortune, I can cover you up. But you committed the crime of slaughtering the people, not saving you when you died, and fell into the well. Even if you did not set the fire, it was your men. Sin is not unavoidable from death. Guishan! Guishan, are you the reincarnation of Huwan! I saw that Huwan's group of uncivilized madmen did this, if you don't learn, you have learned this! Meng Feilong had no expression on his face, but he scolded Guishan fiercely in his heart.
Meng Feilong slowly weighed in his heart, and gradually became more steady. Guishan will be fine.
Now is the time for Bingzhou to employ people, Guishan has been here for as many as nine days, and he is more familiar with the relationship between the people, the dispatch of personnel, and the distribution of materials than anyone else; besides, Guishan is also the commander of the Kuai County army, and there will definitely be a lot of trouble for him in the future; killing him now is undoubtedly a change of generals in the battle, and self-harm before the battle.
This beacon fire that burned day and night, the whole country can see it, the meteor attack on Bingzhou can no longer be hidden, if the soldiers of Bingzhou are homesick, there is no news that the army slaughtered the people of Bingzhou, it is undoubtedly worse news. It's no wonder if there is no mutiny, no one can afford this crime, including Jiachen.
Along the way, Jiachen has always been gentle and silent. I have known him for more than ten years, he is calm and cautious, and he is quite a city government, so he will not make a big deal about these things and change his temperament. It must be that he wanted to give Guishan a "dismount" and told him that Bingzhou had changed to a new state lord, and Guishan did not report all the crimes he had committed, and sold his personal favor to him. The strategy of this hammer stick and a piece of sugar is really high.
The rest of the matter is indeed developing as Meng Feilong calculated.
The guards and spies sent by Meng Feilong to check on the Beacon Fire Mountains in the west of the city also returned. And he drew a map of the situation in the land.
The meteorite fell in Mizusawa County, the northwestern part of Bingzhou, which is named after a swamp of more than 50 acres, with abundant reeds and many migratory birds in summer, and many people love to hunt here in autumn. The Heavenly Stone smashed the swamp into a large crater, splashing out the mud for dozens of miles. How big Ken is, I can only say approximately, about five acres.
And now the swamp is funnel-shaped, splashed with silt, and so steep that it is impossible to know how deep the newly formed pool, or the bottom of the lake, is. However, the shore of the lake is about five feet above the ground.
There are many cracks in the ground in the west of the city, stretching to the foot of the beacon mountain, and the bottom is not visible. Due to the impact of the earthquake, the mountain sloped and leaned towards the country of Huwan. But it is still connected between the Yiyun Kingdom and the Huwan Kingdom. Such a mountain situation made it more difficult for Huwan's soldiers to come and raid.
The guard's report is undoubtedly the best of the bad news.
"Fortunately, the stone fell on this day, and this place was Mizusawa. If it is smashed to the west to the beacon fire mountain, or to the south, even the stirred up sand and dust can fill the city of Bingzhou. Meng Feilong said when he saw the inch thick dust on the house.
That night, the moonlit night of the imperial capital was still the same, and the moonlight was like silver, pouring into the four fields. Just accompanied the queen, admiring the moon in the garden, and reading the situation report of Bingzhou and Linxian in the study, all of which were words to stabilize the situation in Bingzhou. You can faintly see the light of the cut fire. This is not like a cooking fire for refugees in Bingzhou to provide disaster relief to refugees.
Originally, the country was in trouble, but now this smoke cloud has told others about this. Emperor Ming didn't know how much worry he had in his heart. So he sent someone to invite the important civil and military ministers of the DPRK. Flying pigeons and passing the book, there must be no post station in Bingzhou, otherwise ten days later, why didn't Bingzhou send a single piece of information! So he sent the letter to Kuai County, and asked the county lord to check the cause of the fire.
Several ministers pretended to be calm and worried, and sat on both sides of the study, waiting for Emperor Ming to come and inquire. When Emperor Ming did not arrive, they were discussing countermeasures in private, some said that they suggested strengthening the defense of border passes; some said that they made up a reason, saying that there were thundershowers in Bingzhou, and that the rolling thunder had set the forest on fire, and that they would use a secret to cross the sea and paralyze the neighboring countries; and some said that they would ...... The country is in a difficult autumn, and the ideas put forward are not satisfactory. Don't dare to be too out of line.
For the night fire in Bingzhou, Emperor Ming made two preparations, on the one hand, strengthened the security of the border, and on the other hand, announced that the forest in Bingzhou was on fire, causing more than a dozen deaths. Emperor Ming wanted to do it seamlessly, but it was too perfect, and there were flaws. The fire that broke out last night is known to everyone in Dijing today. But don't forget, the imperial capital is a full 2,000 kilometers away from Bingzhou, and no matter how fast the news is, even if it spreads, it may not let the people of the imperial capital know.
The spies of various countries are not stupid, and when they hear the news and look at the city defense, they will probably already know the situation - a great disaster has occurred in Bingzhou. They don't care exactly what causes it or how much harm it is. Anyway, just add fuel and vinegar to the incident and tell others about it. Whether others believe it or not is secondary, and someone can spread it. It's good to make the people in Yiyun Country panic.
The purpose of the spy was achieved. Three days later, what you heard in the streets and alleys of the imperial capital, in the teahouses and hotels, was definitely about Bingzhou.
The old man said that four days ago, the infantry of Huwan Kingdom climbed over the Beacon Fire Mountain with ropes and slaughtered the city of Bingzhou.
This young man said, no, it's Bingzhou who is too murderous. The gods in the sky couldn't see it, so they sent a disaster, so that the people of Bingzhou could also taste the taste of hell, so that they could kill less.
There are all kinds of them, and each one is more evil than the other. Emperor Ming also heard the gossip in the market, but he couldn't ban it, and the more some lies were banned, the more people felt that it was true. The only thing that can be done now is to secure the frontier.
But the soldiers are not stupid, no matter which rumor it is, the place pointing to it is Bingzhou. "Millions of heroes, half of the soldiers in the state" Bingzhou soldiers are very hesitant in their hearts, one side is the hometown father, the old man, the wife and the mother, and the other side is the country's loyalty, serving the country for Xinjiang. This is the dilemma of loyalty and filial piety through the ages. A small number of Bingzhou soldiers prefer to return to their hometowns, although there are military discipline and military law, but they feel that it is much better than not seeing their parents and hometown for the last time.
But at this time, Guhuai and Sangshu sent 200,000 troops each to attack Yiyun at the same time, and they all said that Guhuai and Sangshu established the country with their wisdom and wisdom, but this time they just missed the calculation.
Because the soldiers of Bingzhou only hesitated and did not leave the eastern defense line, the soldiers who planned to flee home had to run to the battlefield again because of the sudden beating of drums. To whom to vent their grievances and sorrows, there is only one answer -- the enemy.
The Guhuai soldiers and the Sangshu soldiers were not the opponents of the Yiyun soldiers in the first place, and they were hastily assembled and traveled a long distance. Bumped into the angry head of the Bingzhou soldiers. The time, place and people did not have an advantage, and as a result, they were defeated and failed to return to their hometown. 400,000 soldiers were killed, and more than 1,000 Yiyun soldiers were killed or wounded.
At this time, Shacheng and Yiping didn't dare to move the idea of Yiyun Country anymore, and the Yiyun soldiers were too cruel to fight. Huwan is even less to fear. It borders Bingzhou, and Bingzhou is in trouble, and it is the first to know about it, but he does not move. Probably, the meteorite also caused him serious damage. Or take advantage of the path to cut down the winged clouds, and the timing will be lost. So stand still.
When the Yiyun soldiers were immersed in the joy of winning the battle, Emperor Ming issued a holy decree, and added a lot of relief to the soldiers in the joy.
