Chapter 64 General Tang
"Yes, we must find a way to tell the Lord!"
No one believed that the dignified County Magistrate would burn them alive for a few copper coins.
They would rather believe that the County Magistrate was too busy, so he didn't know the news that the prescription had been developed.
"Let's go to the County Magistrate and explain it clearly. As long as we make things clear, the Lord will change his mind."
Gan Fanren and his friends didn't think it was funny when they heard these people's ideas, nor did they explain it out loud.
Reading on paper is always shallow, and you must practice it yourself to know it.
Only when these people see with their own eyes what kind of person their parents are, will they give up and resist!
The common people went to chase the county magistrate. After half a day's pursuit, they were driven back by the soldiers stationed outside the city.
They didn't believe it at first, but when they saw the army defending, they believed it.
"Sir, we want to see you!"
"Sir, we have found a solution to the epidemic, and we must not burn the city!"
"Sir, we want you to see us."
They couldn't see the county magistrate through the soldiers. They didn't know where he was, or whether he could hear them, so they could only shout loudly.
"Enough, enough, why are you shouting? Your magistrate has already run away. It's useless for you to shout!"
"The decision to burn the city has been made long ago. No one can change it. If you go back now, you can live a few more days. If you continue to make noise here, I will kill you now."
The soldiers stationed here showed reluctance on their faces, but they were rude in their words.
They didn't know how these people knew the news of the burning of the city, but it was their order to stay here, and they had to obey.
Military orders are like mountains and must be obeyed.
The people were emotional and went to grab the spears in the hands of the soldiers.
On one side were the unarmed people who were about to die, and on the other side were the cold-blooded soldiers with weapons. The contradiction was instantly aroused.
The people fought with the soldiers.
In an instant, the scene became very chaotic.
"Stop it, have you forgotten my military order?"
A loud shout came from the crowd. The soldiers
stopped immediately and knelt on the ground.
"General Tang."
A white-faced general wearing silver armor and a red hairpin appeared in front of everyone.
Most of the people in Jianan Pass were familiar with this man.
"It's General Tang."
"General Tang is here."
General Tang was in charge of an army of 100,000 at a young age. He was young and promising, and had great strength. The army under his command had strict discipline and never bullied the people. If anyone was wronged, he would help to uphold justice.
On the contrary, General Sun of Tongmen Pass never disciplined his soldiers. Soldiers often went into the city to bully the people. They didn't give money for food or things. If anyone dared to ask for money, they would be beaten.
That's not all. General Sun didn't have any ability. He was just a greedy, lustful, and drunkard. He was nothing but a good-looking boy. He couldn't even eliminate the bandits.
Both the people of Tongmen Pass and the passing caravans were bullied by the bandits.
Compared to this, General Tang was really good!
The people of Jianan Pass even said that General Tang was a blessing for the people.
Seeing General Tang, many people cried.
"General Tang, General Tang, we don't want to die, please save us."
"We have found a way to kill the plague, please don't burn us to death."
"General Tang, please be kind and let us go. In the future, every household will cast a longevity tablet for you."
General Tang's clear eyes were filled with complex emotions: "I will report this matter, but I cannot change the decision above."
"Sir, we leave it to you."
"Sir, we leave it to you."
The people knelt on the ground, their voices choked, as if they were filled with thousands of sorrows.
They looked at him deeply and placed all their hopes on him.
Tang Shi felt that his shoulders had become very heavy, and said loudly: "Don't worry, everyone, Tang Shi will do his best."
Gongsun Yue and Gan Fanren stood on a high place and looked at Tang Shi deeply.
Gongsun Yue asked in a low voice: "Brother, what do you think of this General Tang?"
"This General Tang looks young, but he can become a general. You can tell at a glance that he is very capable. If an ordinary person had such achievements at such a young age, he would definitely be complacent and get carried away, but he is not arrogant and looks like a talented person." At
such a young age, even if he is a nobleman from a family with a long lineage, he would not be entrusted with the important task of a general.
Obviously, this General Tang has real talent and knowledge.
"It would be great if this General Tang was one of ours, but he is from the imperial court. I am worried that he is too powerful and we will not be able to break through his encirclement."
Gan Fanren shook his head: "I think we may have to change our plan."
"I have a hunch that this General Tang will be very different from our plan."
According to their original plan, they wanted to make a big fuss before the patients arrived, to the point where they could not hide it from the imperial court, so that the imperial court would send envoys to resolve the matter.
But now, he did not think so.
"The city is about to burn down, and the people of Xiaoye City are almost certain to die. At this juncture, General Tang can still control his soldiers and treat the people well. He is obviously not a bad person."
"So, he should not watch the people burn to death."
"I think we should wait and see what this General Tang will do."
Gan Tian curled up in Gan Fanren's arms, muttering in her heart: [This General Tang sounds so familiar, but why can't I remember who he is? ]
[I think the familiar person must not be an unknown person. ]
After Tang Shi comforted the people, he got on his horse, his eyes filled with rage.
"The people in the city all know that a solution to the epidemic has been found. Wu Zhi is a county magistrate, it is impossible that he knows nothing about it. He knew that the epidemic could be solved, but he still wanted to set fire to the city. He simply did not care about human lives."
"If I don't beat him up today, I'm not Tang!"
Tang Shi said, speeding up. As soon as he arrived at the camp, he saw that dog county magistrate Wu Zhi, holding his wife in his left hand and his concubine in his right hand, happily drinking with his county officials.
Without thinking, he whipped Wu Zhi with a horse whip.
Wu Zhi was drinking when he was suddenly thrown to the ground. He was in pain and couldn't stand up, shouting loudly.
"Help, there's an assassin."
"Quick, kill the assassin."
"Master Wu, the assassin you're talking about, is it me?" Tang Shi rode his horse and slowly approached him.
The sound of the horse's hooves hitting the ground was very oppressive.
