Jinyang, an unknown village.
A carriage drove slowly and stopped at the entrance of the village.
The soldier driving the car looked to the side, and another person came out, nodded towards him, then opened the curtain of the carriage, and roughly dragged two people out of the carriage.
Those are two little girls.
They were both very young, and the soldier showed no mercy at all. He directly grabbed their braids and pulled them off. The two of them sobbed in pain. The soldier led them to the door like sheep.
He let go of his hand.
The two hurriedly took a few steps away, holding each other's hands and looking around in horror.
In front of them was a rough village gate, surrounded by wooden fences. The gate looked very dilapidated, as did the surrounding wooden fences, which were of different heights and even had gaps in some places.
At this moment, there was a person standing in front of them.
This man was fat and chubby. He was wearing merchant's clothes and had a smile of unknown meaning on his face.
He nodded towards the soldier, and then looked at the two girls in front of him.
"Follow me."
When the two girls saw his appearance, they immediately trembled with fear. They immediately remembered the horror stories from their parents: don't go out to play, otherwise merchants will sell them.
The two of them immediately cried louder.
The merchant frowned, and the soldier grabbed them again and dragged them all the way to the door. The merchant took over and brought them in.
The soldier stood at the door and did not go further in. He stared at them with stern eyes.
"Don't cry or else, I will send you to the door now, and those two soldiers will eat you."
"From now on, you are my daughters and the waiters in the restaurant. You are responsible for shouting and serving distinguished guests in the restaurant."
"No matter who you meet, you have to say this, otherwise, you have to send them to the door."
The merchant said lightly.
The older sister immediately shut her mouth, looked at her sister, and gently comforted her.
The merchant was a little surprised, so he simply let them go and let them follow him and continue walking forward.
There are many depressions on this road, and the feces of different creatures are randomly placed on both sides, giving off bursts of stench.
There are many dilapidated houses on both sides of the road.
These houses are either wooden houses or thatched houses.
The doors of these houses are all open.
They could see many different people sitting inside, some were pounding rice with sweating profusely, some were repeatedly feeding the dog, which could no longer eat, and some were talking to their wives, their bodies numb and stiff.
There are also many people on the road.
There were hawkers carrying burdens hawking around, and even a few farmers could be seen in the distance. These farmers were plowing, with equally stiff movements and frightened expressions on their faces.
There were obviously a lot of people on the road, but the two little girls didn't know who to call for help at this moment.
My sister looked around with astonishment in her eyes.
At this moment, several official officers came towards them. The leader was a petty official, followed by two soldiers.
There was no trace of fear on the merchant's face, and he just passed by him.
At this moment, the sister suddenly stretched out her hand and grabbed the young official.
"Sir!"
The clerk stopped and looked down at her.
The two soldiers also looked at her, the merchant looked at her, the farmers in the distance looked at her, and the vendors passing by also looked at her. Almost at the same moment, everyone put down what they were doing.
Everyone looked at her.
The little girl suddenly felt horrified. She looked at the merchant. There was no trace of worry on the merchant's face, and his eyes were full of indifference.
She was discouraged and said, "It's dinner time. Your superiors can go to my restaurant to eat some food before making the rounds. The food in my restaurant is the most delicious."
The superior pulled her hand away displeased and looked at the merchant, "Discipline her well!"
"Wei,wei."
The merchant smiled and nodded, turning around the corner, he could see an ordinary restaurant.
The merchant led them inside.
There are still a few customers visible in the restaurant. There is nothing to eat in front of these diners, but they are just sitting here and not going anywhere.
The merchant transformed into a shopkeeper, greeted them with a smile, and then left the sisters busy here while he walked into the inner room.
The two sisters stood in the lobby, looking at the diners, and then looked at each other blankly.
They don't know what to do either.
What I experienced today was truly terrifying.
After waiting for a long time, someone suddenly started shouting in the back kitchen. My sister plucked up the courage and walked into the back kitchen. There was a man who looked like a cook and pointed at the food in front of her.
The sister took the food and went out.
She held the food in her hands and gently asked which distinguished guest ordered it.
But none of these people answered, so she hesitated for a moment and could only place it in front of the diner closest to her.
When she got closer, she saw the tears on this diner's face. He looked at the food in front of him, his whole body started to tremble, his throat trembled, he slowly picked up the chopsticks and started eating, but the tears fell again.
fall.
They stayed here all day, and so did the diners.
The meals would be ready from time to time, and they would take them out to the diners, while their younger sister wiped the tables and chairs.
These diners keep eating and will eat as soon as the food is served.
Both sisters were shocked.
The sky was getting dark, but the people in front of me had no intention of leaving.
No one told them what to do.
When it was almost dark, a figure finally broke the weird atmosphere in the restaurant.
It was a little boy, about the same age as the two sisters, but his clothes were more ragged, covered in mud, and extremely dirty. He was holding a broken bowl and looked at the sisters pitifully.
"Please, have mercy on me and give me something to eat."
The two sisters looked at each other. The elder sister looked at the bulging bellies of the diners and the unfinished meals in front of them, and hesitated for a moment.
The next moment, the shopkeeper, who had not shown up for a long time, suddenly jumped out. I don’t know where he appeared from.
He pointed at the little beggar in front of him and shouted rudely: "Is this where you should be? If you ruin my business, get out! Get out!"
The little beggar's eyes were filled with tears, "I haven't eaten for a whole day."
"Get out! Get out quickly!!"
The little beggar turned around and left dejectedly. The merchant watched him go out and then turned around and went in.
My sister secretly came to the diner and took a piece of cake. The diner just pretended not to see anything.
My sister looked around and walked out quickly.
"Why!"
"you!"
The little beggar had just reached the corner of the street and suddenly stopped when he heard a cry.
He looked back at the sister.
The little girl handed the cake in her hand to the other party, "Take it and eat it secretly."
The little beggar's expression changed. He looked up and down at the little girl in front of him, and pondered for a moment, "Why did you give me the cake?"
"Didn't you eat? I took this out secretly. No one saw it. You can eat it without worry."
The little beggar pondered again, then nodded with excitement, "Thank you!"
He picked up the bread, sat aside, and began to devour it.
He ate very quickly, and the pie was eaten up in a matter of seconds.
The little girl was stunned for a moment, "Are you not full? Do you want me to bring you some more?"
"Okay, okay!"
The little beggar stood quietly at the door and looked inside. The little girl began to secretly get the cakes.
The diners had no reaction at all.
When the little girl brought the cake to the little beggar, the little beggar just stared at the diners in the room.
"You stole food in front of them, why didn't they resist?"
"Why?"
“I didn’t know this place was so weird.”
"Strange?"
A strange smile slowly appeared on the little beggar's face. His white teeth did not match his dirty appearance at all.
Suddenly there was a scream in the lobby, and the girl was frightened. She hurriedly looked back.
I saw that the diners had fallen to the ground, and several masked men in black were standing beside them with weapons in their hands. I didn't know when they appeared.
"Puch~~"
The little beggar got off the carriage.
There were many people in black standing around, all with their heads lowered and kneeling respectfully.
He took off his clothes in front of everyone, and asked for water to wash away the dirt on his body. Then, he finally revealed his original face.
Emperor Gao Wei.
Someone came to him with armor. Several people put the armor on the emperor and brought him horses.
Gao Wei rode his war horse through the village and entered the next gate.
The scene inside the gate is really amazing.
There are many miniature cities in the distance. These cities were built in real time, and many flags can be seen in the distance.
On both sides of the roads leading to these cities, there were many soldiers and cavalry standing on both sides, including five or six hundred people.
When they saw Gao Wei, they all bowed their heads and saluted.
"General!!"
Gao Wei smiled and nodded, then looked into the distance.
The city in front of him had only one gate at the front and back, and the city towers were quite high.
There is also a plaque hanging on the tower to indicate the identity of the city.
Above the city, the word "Shuozhou" is written in large letters.
Gao Wei pulled out his sword and pointed at the city in front of him, "Charge!!"
The soldiers followed him and began to charge. They rushed all the way to the city gate and there were indeed many troops on the city wall. These soldiers were all with disheveled hair, extremely vicious, holding crossbows and aiming at the high latitude outside the city.
Gao Wei stopped and looked around, "Who is the guard in this city?!"
"Return to the general! It's the traitor general Yao Xiong!"
"very good!!"
"Break the city with me and capture Yao Xiong alive!!"
"only!!"
"Siege the city!!"
Gao Wei roared, and the soldiers on the left and right rushed forward with ladders in their arms. The defenders on the city wall were very shocked at this moment. They seemed to be suppressed by the momentum of the army, and they could only scream wildly with their crossbows without arrows.
Trying to make the enemy stop by shouting.
When Gao Wei saw his soldiers setting up the ladder, he personally took the lead in the charge.
Under the personal protection of several soldiers, Gao Wei rushed to the top of the city. The enemies fled in all directions, but Gao Wei drew his sword and slashed indiscriminately. Several enemies who had no time to escape died in his hands.
The soldiers all paused.
"Where is Yao Xiong?! Come and fight me to the death!!"
Gao Wei roared angrily and saw a burly man being pushed out by several soldiers.
The man was wearing armor crookedly, with a horrified look on his face. He was holding a wooden stick and walked forward tremblingly. Looking at the emperor in front of him, he swallowed and looked to the left and right in horror.
The soldiers nodded towards him.
Then he slowly walked forward and said, "Yao Xiong is here! You thief general, you should die!"
He raised the wooden stick and hit Gao Wei. Gao Wei hurriedly raised the sword in his hand to block. The wooden stick fell lightly on the sword, but Gao Wei easily blocked it. He took a step forward and
About to pierce his chest with the sword, 'Yao Xiong' dropped the wooden stick in his hand and hurriedly knelt on the ground, "Spare your life! General, spare your life! I was confused for a moment and followed Liu Thief to do these things. I am willing to surrender!"
General, please spare your life!"
Listening to the other party's shouts again and again, Gao Wei hesitated for a moment, then looked to the left and right, "What do you think?"
"Since Yao Xiong has abandoned the dark side and turned to the bright side, the general might as well accept him and let him make up for his mistakes!"
"Well said, you are now my vanguard! Follow me to attack together!"
"Thank you, General! Thank you, General!"
Yao Xiong felt relieved and hurriedly walked to Gao Wei, bowing his head.
After Gao Wei captured this city, he once again led troops to attack several other cities. After defeating Shuozhou, Yanzhou, Youzhou and other cities, he captured Kou Liu, Zhang Heizu, Bao Xian and other generals, and then attacked
After killing Gao Changgong, Hu Luguang and others, Gao Wei finally reached the final level.
That's right, Pingcheng.
In Pingcheng, everyone was in panic and chaos. A soldier knelt on the wall and cried miserably.
"Spare me!"
"I still have a family, and Your Majesty will definitely kill someone."
"I don't want to be Liu Taozi, I don't want to be Liu Taozi!"
"Before drawing lots, everyone agreed that if you die, we will take good care of your family. How can we regret it?!"
While they were still discussing, Cushman had already launched an attack.
The man had no choice but to let his colleagues put armor on him and put mud on his face to make him look ugly.
The man put on his ugly makeup and walked to the tower shivering.
Soon, Gao Wei appeared in front of him.
Gao Wei looked at Liu Taozi in front of him angrily. He didn't hide his murderous intent at all. He didn't even say a few words and came to kill Liu Taozi with his sword.
Liu Taozi hurriedly blocked and blocked several of the opponent's moves, but Gao Wei kept forcing her all the way to the corner.
"I am willing to surrender! I am willing to surrender!"
Hearing Liu Taozi's words, Gao Wei was furious. He pointed at him and cursed: "You disloyal sycophant! You publicly executed my brother, which made me lose face. He forced me to Jinyang and made a Jinyang order."
,If I don’t kill you, why vent my anger?!”
Regardless of the other party's plea for mercy, he stepped forward and struck Liu Taozi with a sword, killing Liu Taozi on the spot.
The soldiers on the city wall looked at each other numbly, but were unwilling to speak. The soldiers who followed Gao Wei could only shout long live.
Gao Wei raised his head and laughed.
Jinyang, Pingyang Palace.
"This guy is crazy! Completely crazy!"
"Uncle! Haven't you seen clearly yet?!"
Gao Yanzong looked at Gao Yan in front of him angrily, clenching his fists and reaching the edge of losing control.
Gao Yan just sat calmly in the upper position. Compared with when he just left for Jinyang, he was obviously much older, and his whole temperament had undergone earth-shaking changes.
His hair was mostly gray, his eyes were numb, and his whole person was dull. He looked like he was seriously ill.
Facing the furious King Ande, Gao Yan was speechless. In the past, he could think of some ways to excuse the emperor, but now, what the emperor did was really indescribable, and it was getting more and more outrageous.
"This kid really doesn't know how to live or die. He took away a few of my soldiers today. Once he went in, he never came out!"
"He also sent people to arrest people from the road, and the whole city was in panic."
"As for awards, look at Jinyang today. There are kings everywhere. He calls everyone he sees a king. There is a musician who played a song for him and he was canonized as a king! King, follow me.
Even!!”
Gao Yanzong said angrily: "He is still building a lot of things in the palace. I don't even know what he is building, and I don't want to know!"
"At first I wanted to leave with my brother, but he asked me to come and protect my uncle. I promised him to do this, so I stayed with my uncle all the time. Faced with the kid's ridiculous behavior, I kept enduring it, but
Now, I really can't stand it anymore."
"Uncle, today, you either leave with me, or I leave on my own!"
Gao Yan finally reacted. He raised his head and looked at Gao Yanzong.
“Are we just going to watch Da Qi’s demise like this?”
"Uncle, don't look at me like that."
"Da Qi has been destroyed a long time ago. It was already destroyed when Emperor Xiaozhao passed away."
Gao Yanzong's eyes were cold. "There are already too many people in Jinyang who are dissatisfied with Gao Wei. Even the old nobles in the city are hesitating about this matter. If my brother hadn't been harsh to them, I would have kidnapped the emperor and surrendered to him."
Brother."
"Originally, Jinyang's food and grass can last for several years."
"But after this guy arrived, he held banquets all day long, including banquets for thousands of people, banquets for tens of thousands of people, various rewards, and misbehaving. Now that he's done, there's not enough food to eat."
"With tens of thousands of troops in Jinyang, what will happen if they don't have food and grass?"
"The next step is to start robbing the people. When they are all gone, they will start eating people. When everyone is finished eating, it is finally time to eat Cushman."
"Things have reached this point. There is really no possibility and no difference. Although I am a member of the clan, but seeing the world become what it is now, I really have nothing to miss in my heart. There are also many people in the clan who are following us.
They are by the general's side and serve him. The general has never treated them badly and pays special attention to them. Let's go and don't stay here anymore."
