Chapter 53: The king suddenly came to the city

The old general Mohumo Moer led the army to the starry night, and arrived at the mountain city of Vikchi at dawn.

The soldiers defending the city had already entered the city to report, and the city lord was about to come out in a panic, with his official hat crooked and his clothes disheveled, and he hurriedly saluted.

"The prince has arrived, and the lower officials have missed the distance, and I hope to forgive the sins!"

Mo Hu Moer saw the city lord holding his fist in front of the horse, in his forties, white and fat, with a goatee and a chin curled up one by one.

Lerma said: "That's it, I don't blame you for greeting or not greeting." “

When the fat city lord heard this, his face was full of smiles: "Prince Xie is not to blame." I respectfully invite the prince to enter the city and rest. “

"The entry into the city has been postponed, but this homeless person has run away, are you guilty?"

When the fat city lord heard this, he looked at the surrounding soldiers all majestic and murderous, and felt that the atmosphere was wrong. Rolling his little blue eyes and looking at the prince, he saw that the old general had a serious face, and his heart chuckled.

hurriedly pounced and knelt down, kowtowed and shouted: "The lower official is guilty, the lower official is guilty." However, the displaced people can't control the lower officials! There are really too many people, and there is a shortage of troops in the city, so the lower officials have more than enough heart but not enough strength!"

"Just looking at the mess outside this city, you know that the city lord is not capable. From now on, the army took over the affairs of the city-state. ”

The fat city lord kowtowed again and again.

I also heard the old general say: "As the lord of the city, you should work for the welfare of the people, but you have not been able to control the plague effectively, and the displaced people have fled again, causing the plague to spread." Killing you is not enough to thank the world. ”

The fat city lord trembled with fright, kowtowed like pounding garlic, and begged for mercy again and again. The heart speaks, this is very different from the information I got yesterday!

It turned out that yesterday evening, the two personal soldiers of the old general Mo Humo saw the people fleeing in fear because of the false rumors.

The guards at the gate of the city were very curious, why did the people panic so much when they heard that the royal division troops were coming?

A stream of people rushed in front of him, and the guard grabbed a young man who was running and asked:

"Will you really slaughter the city?"

The young man panicked and hurriedly said, "Yes! Allah's Coastal Castle was slaughtered by them, and I fled from there!

Guard Armor smiled: "We are not afraid, we are defenders." ”

The young man hurriedly said: "Slaughtering the city is to kill them all, whether you are an official or a soldier, a soldier or a civilian, no one will be left! If you are not afraid of death, stay here, if you don't believe me, let me go, I will run for my life!"

With that, he broke free from his guard and continued to run.

The smile on the guard armor's face disappeared, and it was replaced by a look of fear, and he said to the other soldiers in a panic: "We are not spared, hurry!

The guard turned and ran into the city.

The remaining soldiers were no longer in formation, and their faces were full of fear, and they were talking a lot, not knowing what to do.

The open area in front of the city, except for a few corpses, was a mess, littered with garbage, and everything was in tatters.

After some discussion, the soldiers went back to the woods, took off their civilian clothes to reveal the military clothes inside, led the horses, and rode to the front of the city.

When the defenders saw the official soldiers, they panicked even more.

A soldier said: "Please report to the city lord, don't panic, Prince Mo Hu will arrive in a few days to help the city lord control the plague and manage the castle." This order!"

At the same time, the token was lit up.

Guard B hurriedly took the order and rushed into the city.

The other defenders looked at each other, not knowing what to believe.

Defender C boldly asked, "Don't you slaughter the city?"

The herald's own soldiers turned pale, and replied: "Obey the order, don't believe the rumors!

A few of the soldiers ignored the defenders and hurriedly turned their horses back to report.

When the city lord heard the report of the guards, he immediately panicked, and hurriedly urged his family to pack up the gold and silver, clothing, socks, shoes and hats and other light supplies and equipment to escape.

Guard A hurriedly ran out again, and as soon as he left the gate of the city lord's mansion, he collided with Guard B.

The two hurriedly explained to each other, and when they heard that the city would not be slaughtered, Guard A came back and reported back with B.

When the fat city lord heard this, he immediately smiled, and half-jokingly said to the two: "You two are teasing me!"

"Don't dare!"

"Alright, let's be on duty!"

The guards were gone, and the fat city lord stopped urging his family to pack their belongings, relaxed, and began to prepare dinner for his family, happily forgetting to take care of the outside of the city.

The next day, just after dawn, when the fat city lord was still in the warm bed, he was awakened by a report from the guard, and hurriedly dressed and ran out of the city gate.

Now when I see that the prince wants to punish him, I am really afraid, and my body is like chaff, and I can't stand on the ground.

In fact, the old general Mo didn't want to punish him for capital crimes at all, but just blamed him for his lack of management.

The old general was resentful of himself, and originally sent his own soldiers to deliver the message to stabilize the people's hearts, but he didn't expect that good intentions would do bad things, but he scared the displaced people away. This was something he had not expected.

Hurriedly asked the city lord to get up, and after inquiring in detail about the situation in the city, he ordered the arrangements to be made.

Each household is closed and isolated, and the number of people is registered from door to door. The patient was treated by the imperial doctor.

Guards were arranged to be on duty at the city gate day and night to strictly prevent entry and exit, and officers and soldiers in the city patrolled day and night.

Clean up the garbage in front of the city and burn and bury the bodies of the dead.

Restore trade and settle people's livelihoods. Demarcate trade zones and open them for a limited time. The exchange of civilian goods is supervised by the government and the military.

It is impossible for the Alayanzong to hear these orders from the old general Moyumoor. He stood at the top of the hill from afar, only to see all the officers and soldiers moving quickly.

A group of men and horses entered the city, a group of men and horses went to clean the square in front of the city, and a group of men and horses set up camp outside the city and surrounded the castle.

Soon another team of men and horses brought out several carts of things from the city, pushed them to the foot of the mountain, and lit a fire and burned them.

The smell of charred corpses fills the air!

This smell was familiar to Arayanzong, who had smelled it outside Allah's Primal Citadel.

Alayanzong clenched his fists and waved, "Alas!

A wave of resentment arose. He thought of the fallen Master, and of the people of Allah's coastal city-state who were buried in the giant tombs.

His eyes were already moist, and his chest was even more angry!

Tyrannical! How can we win the hearts of the people by treating the people like this? The dynasty will soon be in power!

He thought of what Mo Xu Fuyun said, and somewhat agreed with Mo Xu Fuyun's point of view, and began to understand Mo Xu Fuyun's life.

If he is really the son of the eldest prince Mo Wuwu, he feels ashamed for his family and ashamed of having such an uncle.

They were powerful in the court, but they were so careless in dealing with the lives of the people. For the sake of the country, he does not hesitate to sacrifice the innocent, it is really unworthy!

He is doing chivalrous righteousness among the people, hanging pots to help the world, helping the weak and the poor, and atoning for their sins.

Disdain to be of the same kind as these people!

No, it is still necessary to clarify the identity and draw a clear line with them, you are your faint king, and I am my people.

I want to think about it, and I want to be angry. After a long time, Alayanzong's mood calmed down a lot.

By this time, Ula no Peach had woken up and stood behind him.

The Alayan Sect explained the scene he had just seen, as well as his own thoughts, in detail with the Peach of Ulla.

After helping him analyze it, Ula Peach said, "It's so far away, I can't see what they're doing. It is necessary to scout closely and find out what happened. ”

Arayanzong felt that what she said made perfect sense, and decided to go and investigate.
