Chapter 172: Imperial Decree! Defend Boulder City

Yandu, Imperial Palace.

In the Qiankun Hall, after Zhao Zheng ended the video call, everyone in the hall was silent.

Almost all the emperors in the history of the Great Yan were "benevolent, political" and "loving the people", helping the weak, but Zhao Zheng's approach was not only not so, but also seemed to be doing it in the opposite direction.

Using the lives of the people of Yannan to pile up the defense line and fight the powerful demon beasts is like letting those people go to the front line to die.

Regardless of the outcome of this battle, it is inevitable that Di Kun's reputation will become extremely stinky, there is a way, those who win the hearts of the people win the world, Zhao Zheng's order will obviously not win the hearts of the people, maybe it will be cursed by countless Yannan people.

"Is that all it about?"

Liu Siqi looked at Qin Wangming.

Zhao Zheng's words are said, and the specific orders still need to be transmitted by the cabinet.

"Your Majesty has already decreed, and it should be so, Your Majesty and we are in a different position, and we look at things from different angles. Qin Ge Lao, if you don't dare to bear this infamy, then let me Zhang Qianlong come, anyway, I, Zhang Qianlong, am a lackey of His Majesty, and I have no face to talk about. ”

Zhang Qianlong stood up and said with a smile.

Something, he can really get on.

"Doctor Zhang said with a smile, I, Qin Wangming, am the head of the cabinet elders, and Qin Zhong's rebellions all died under my sword, when am I afraid of people's words? If this is the case, then the decree is given, then the war! ”

Qin Wangming confirmed this order.

The surrounding civil officials and doctors immediately went to verify the details and passed the book to Yuanshi.

This paper yuan stone biography of the Qiankun Hall has completely pushed the reputation of Dikun to the forefront, and the emperor's reputation in Yannan has been discredited, and it has also caused countless silent condemnations in the entire territory of Dayan, and they are afraid that they are also weak people who are threatened by external forces.

The only thing that is relieved is the giver.

Those who went all the way south in the countercurrent to kill the demon beasts.

They are no longer alone.

Those who are facing the north and running with their backs to the south can contribute a little bit of their strength before they are caught up by the demon beast and swallowed or obliterated.

They are no longer running and running to be chased and die, at least they can face the monster and die.

……

Boulder.

The huge stone city to the north of the South Desert City is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and it is rich in boulder stones.

The decree drawn up by the Cabinet has come.

The county seat Hou Sun looked at the content of Yuanshi's biography in front of him, and was directly stunned.

After being stunned, his heart warmed up a little.

Every time the battle situation in the Southern Wilderness City reaches him, his heart will be violently entangled, after the Southern Wilderness City, it will be his Giant Stone City. There are too many demon beasts on the other side, they are huge in strength and thick in body, and they are almost invincible in the face of those mortals in the city.

All Boulder City can do is to delay time and wait for the arrival of Yandu's strong army!

If not, their Boulder City will be disintegrated in minutes, and the people of Boulder City will die.

Since the news of the beast tide came out, the battle of Southern Wilderness City began, and as the second city facing the Great Forest of the Southern Wilderness, the people of Giant Stone City began to retreat and flee on a large scale.

Sun Qianqian was under a lot of pressure, as the prince of Yannan of the Great Yan Dynasty, he couldn't run, Wu Yong of Southern Wilderness City had already led a family to die on the first front of Southern Wilderness City, if he ran, he couldn't explain to the temple.

As the prince of Dayan and a fugitive general, he is not the emperor Kun, even the king of Yannan will definitely not let him go and his family.

You can only fight.

Sun Qianfang's heart was sour, and all the people were desperately running away and leaving here.

And they, as official families, can't run, they have to be at the front.

Sun Qianfang is an ordinary person, and most of his soldiers are ordinary people, the situation in Boulder City is much worse than that of Nanhuang City, no one wants to stay and participate in the war to defend the city, they think that this war is not equal, and they think that this has nothing to do with their ordinary people, that is, they only care about their own run, but they don't know that all of them are running, the city defense can't be prevented at all, as soon as the city is broken, they rely on their legs and feet, why can they outrun the monsters and beasts?

The morale of Boulder City was so low that people were running, they wanted to run, but they couldn't.

Fighting the demon beast clan with the power of the human race, they are also fighting with their lives, piling up their lives.

When watching the people in the city flee frantically, and they are going to fight hard for such a city people, just thinking about it, their hearts are very sour, they are also people, why do they want to die?

Who doesn't want to live?

They want to too!

There have been many incidents of desertion, and they have all been suppressed by Sun Qianqian.

"Your Majesty's decree has arrived."

Sun held aloft the holy decree copied by the civil officials of the city in front of him, and he shouted at all the warriors on the city wall.

Hearing this, the demoralized soldiers raised their heads one after another.

Facing a big battle to the death, without the people who support them, people have run away, who will come, who can really die generously in their hearts?

"Brothers, Your Majesty has not given up on us, they understand what we want!"

Sun Qianfang's voice was a little broken.

The soldiers raised their heads one after another, but there was not much look in their eyes, and many of them were already dead, and they were alive, but they were like the walking dead.

Sun Qianfang continued to roar: "From today onwards, all my people of Dayan, regardless of men, women, and children, will all resist the invasion of the Demon Beast Clan!" Those who retreat, there is no mercy for killing! This battle is no longer our lone battle, it is a battle for the whole people! This time, no one can retreat without the old, weak, sick or disabled! ”

Not everyone has the consciousness of the people of Nanhuang City, and Zhao Zheng helped these people improve their consciousness.

"No one can retreat, and neither will we, hold up all the waist poles for me!"

"If you want to die, you all die together, kill more demon beasts!"

"Yes!!"

Morale has risen massively.

Some people have a balance in their hearts.

This is long overdue.

This is not a civil war, it is a battle for the survival of the clans, why are they the only ones fighting.

Sun Qianfang spoke: "Pass the order and resolutely obey His Majesty's holy decree!" ”

In Boulder City.

Millions of people are running wildly.

They have lost their homes and possessions and are fleeing for their lives.

If you look closely, these people, the fastest runners are the front, and they are all young and strong people.

On the contrary, the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled are all left behind, and they are also fleeing.

"Stride, stomp!"

A cavalry contingent surrounded the front.

The cavalry centurion said coldly: "Your Majesty has an order, all the people of Giant Stone City should unite to fight against the invasion of demon beasts!" Those who retreat and flee will be killed! ”

"What kind of bullshit imperial decree, how can there be such an imperial decree, is Di Kun still a person? Why let us go? We are all powerless people, let's feed the monsters? What do you eat the imperial food for? ”

"Get out of the way, we're leaving! If you want to beat you, I won't fight, even if you kill me, I won't fight! It's so funny, how can we beat those monsters? To say, you soldiers are useless, they are all waste, how can there be a war to let the people come forward! ”

"I'm the only seedling in the family, I want to leave the inheritance incense, you bullshit soldiers are in our way, it's just a waste of our time to escape! Get out of here, delay our escape, what compensation do you get! ”

The voices of the people were boiling, and as soon as this holy decree was announced, the scene was immediately full of resentment and scolding, and those people were scolding very ugly.

Many of the people were flushed and angry.

Listening to the words at the scene, the centurion's heart was cold, people are selfish words, but since this is the case, they really have no reason to fight for such a group of people and take their own lives.

Fortunately, their majesty is different from ordinary emperors.

They can die in battle, but they will die standing and fighting like this, not for the escape of a bunch of cowards, they will be too comfortable in their hearts, they will be too balanced.

The centurion said: "Your Majesty has a saying, retreat one person, kill one person, retreat one city, and slaughter one city!" ”

"Tyrant Emperor Kun! Faint! How many of us are there and how many of them are there? Don't be afraid, the law does not blame the public, we rush over, and no one can stop us from living! Whoever wants to fight the monster and die will die, I don't want to die anyway, I want to live, rush over with me! ”

Someone took the lead and spoke.

"Rush over! Rush over!! ”

This lead immediately received countless responses.

"Hook and sickle!" The centurion waved his hand, and the ninety hooked sickles behind him changed from vertical to front.

"Rush !!"

The populace began to charge.

The centurion had a halberd in his hand, and the people who took the lead were directly smashed in the head by his halberd.

"Attack!!"

The soldiers began to attack.

The hook and sickle cut the head like a numb.

Does the law not hold the public accountable?

Isn't this a joke?

Zhao Zheng ruled the country, he was the emperor's dictatorship, and he was ten times more cruel than any harsh legalist.

In Zhao Zheng's case, it is that you disobey orders, how many people die, and by the way, there is a connection.

The situation in Boulder City is rising.

Like a sheep, countless people were driven back.

They complained, but they did not dare to say anything.

Midday.

Here it comes.

The black-pressed monster is here.

The South Wilderness City lasted for nearly a day.

On the walls of Megalith City, the first thing you see is the fleeing people, there are too many people, a large area of black pressure, they are all facing the south gate of Megalith City.

"Open the city gates, open the city gates, help!!"

There were tens of thousands of people in this line.

They ran forward without looking back, even if the family members around them fell, they didn't stop for a moment, they were all frightened, and they just ran forward vigorously.

It's as if I never thought of resisting, even resisting.

They all yearn for their lives, for life.

But as a result, they turned their backs to those beasts, but none of them could survive, and the beasts and demon beasts were barely separated by one paw.

They fell in great numbers.

Some ran to the edge of the moat and began to cry out for help.

"Put the drawbridge, open the city gate, come out to fight, are you people from Boulder City still human? Watching us die? ”

"Help, help, they're about to catch up."

"Help me, I have money to give you a good reward!"

"Snort!"

Their escape proved to be all in vain.

Because there were enough people blocking the footsteps of the demon beasts, they were able to escape here, to escape to the walls of Boulder City.

If there are more people in Boulder City, it will be broken faster, and if you escape, you won't be able to live.

Not only that, but it still doesn't have the slightest effect on death.

Zhao Zheng saw through this point and made that holy decree, and everyone was not allowed to retreat, and only in this way could they really have some effect.

The gates were not opened.

There were also people on the city walls, their faces frightened and indifferent.

"Emperor Dayan has an order, all my Dayan soldiers, treat demon beasts, do not retreat, those who retreat, there is no forgiveness!"

On the city wall, the adjutant general in front of Sun spoke.

The archers drew their bows as many as they could.

Those who can run here with physical strength, there is no such thing as the old, weak, sick and disabled, chased by demon beasts all the way, and those who run here can play a role on the battlefield, with good physical strength and combat power. But their first choice was to run for their lives.

"Are you sick, are you still soldiers of the Great Flame? If you don't save yourself when you die, you will fall into the well! ”

"Open the gates, there will be death, we will all die."

"Please, open the gates!"

"Those who are close to the moat, kill, there is no forgiveness!" Sun Qianfang said coldly.

Inside the city, inside the gates, millions of people trembled with weapons in hand.

"I don't believe it, they really would shoot arrows at our kind! We swim across the moat together! ”

Someone spoke up to take the lead.

As he spoke, an arrow pierced his head, and he died by the moat, and his body rolled into the moat.

The moat was thrown into the poison, and as soon as the corpse entered, it let out a terrifying "snort" sound, and soon it was corroded to the point that only Moribai's bones remained.

"Scared!"

The people who approached the moat were taken aback.

Immediately afterwards, the "rain of arrows" struck, and all those who approached the moat were shot.

"Turn around, head towards the monster, and rush forward!!"

On the city wall, Sun Qianqian roared coldly.

"Snort!"

The rain of arrows was thick, and those who overtook were shot one after another.

"Ahhhh

"Forget it, fight with them!"

"Kill!"

A lot of people were scared to tears.

In the middle of the dilemma, the tens of thousands of people with no weapons rushed towards the group of beasts that were chasing after them.

The fierce battle begins.

These people all rushed forward with the mentality of "die or die", but the result turned out to be reversed, they moved forward desperately, with a decisive death breath on their bodies, and the beast that chased after them ran away without much fight.

They were frightened by the momentum.

There weren't many dead, but the beast team retreated, and these people were stunned.

Some of the people on the city wall who were caught were also stunned.

Can the beast retreat?

Sun Qianfang threw the general's helmet aside, and he held the polished long sword in his backhand: "Our human race is fate, and the demon beast clan is also fate, this battle is life for life." We are about to start charging, and from now on, I will not limit you to be deserters, run away, because if you escape, you will definitely die, you will not die under the pursuit of demon beasts, and you will also die in front of the moat of the next city! ”

"It's up to you to decide which way to die with your face. Open the city gate, lower the suspension bridge, form a human wall to kill forward, and strive for output space for the remote output on the city wall! We will not die, and the gates of the Great Stone City will not be broken. ”

After speaking, Sun Qianfang was the first to go out of the city gate and out of the moat.

Everyone looked at each other.

Immediately afterwards, a large number of people walked out of the city gates.
