at the same time.
In Guangling County.
During the cavalry raid, the governor of Yelan County was locked in a prison cart and paraded through the streets escorted by a team of elite soldiers.
"Your Majesty has led his personal soldiers to the northern border to redress the grievances of the people!"
"Your Majesty is coming! Your Majesty is really coming!"
"Woo, woo, woo! Long live your majesty, long live your majesty, long live your majesty!"
"So, His Majesty still cares about us? He hasn't forgotten this place, and the court hasn't abandoned us. We have finally made it through, we have finally made it through!"
There were exclamations one after another, mixed with sobs from men, women, young and old.
Even if their wealth was emptied by corrupt officials, even if only half of the population remained in the city.
They still have hope in the court.
...
...
Xiao Yuqi rode a tall horse with his head held high and his chest puffed out. He held a six-foot-long sword in his hand and wore a black robe with five-clawed dragons, embroidered with a golden dragon flying through the moon and round clouds.
The dark brocade robe glows with colorful light under the sunlight.
The surging crowd spontaneously made way for him.
Behind him, there were thousands of troops.
It was like a blazing sun that finally penetrated the thick dark clouds, broke through the gray world, and covered all living things with a ray of colorful light.
The grateful people knelt on the ground and shouted "Long live the king".
The prison van of Yelan County Magistrate followed not far behind.
This was seen by the sharp-eyed people, who spontaneously spat at him, wishing they could drown this corrupt official with a single spit.
In the past, all officials responsible for guarding the water source were arrested.
There was only one young man left, wearing a constable's uniform. He swung the long knife in his hand and slashed it hard, forcibly cutting the iron chain that blocked the edge of the most conspicuous well on the side of the avenue.
"Your Majesty has issued an oral order that from today onwards, the people's water supply will be restored. Anyone who dares to sell water without permission and plunder the people's wealth will be killed without mercy."
"Oh! Your Majesty's grace is great and your Majesty will live forever."
"Your Majesty's grace is great and your Majesty will live forever!"
Passing through the busy pedestrian street, Xiao Yuqi led the elite vanguard and galloped on horseback, and the follow-up troops followed closely.
Xiao Yuqi could only mobilize a few troops.
Under the special formation, the team looks unusually large.
The gates of Jing County were closed.
Faint screams could be heard, penetrating the heavy city gate and towering city walls and reaching Xiao Yuqi's ears.
He knew that Tianji had succeeded.
Jing County was in complete chaos.
He estimated the fastest round trip distance from Jingxian to Maoershan.
When the news of Xue Liangqi's illness spread to Maoer Mountain, the rebels brought their elite troops to quell the rebellion.
He had already successfully broken through the gate of Jing County, tearing a hole in the impregnable northern border.
No matter how solid the shell is, once there is a crack, the crack will only get bigger and bigger.
Until everyone found out.
Until no one can remedy it.
Xiao Yuqi was taking advantage of this time difference.
The ladders were put up on the city wall as quickly as possible.
The city defense soldiers inside the city wall are struggling with the rioting people.
By the time they realized that reinforcements were coming outside, it was too late!
A large group of elite soldiers attacked the city wall and occupied the commanding heights.
The banners of the northern vassal states were uprooted.
A full-moon flag unique to the Tianyu royal family was hoisted.
"Your Majesty has brought his personal soldiers to quell the rebellion, why don't you surrender quickly!"
At that moment, the black flag seemed to be inserted into the hearts of the people.
He Hu and He Bao led the crowd, holding sickles and axes in their hands, and fought a desperate battle with those well-trained soldiers.
From the moment I heard that His Majesty was here in person.
Their indomitable bravery increased by several degrees.
"Your Majesty has come to support us, folks, charge, kill these bastards, and avenge our lost loved ones!"
"Kill those bastards and avenge our lost loved ones!"
Suddenly, more and more people joined the battle.
Wave after wave of elite soldiers, with the help of ladders, climbed up the high city walls.
The elite soldiers and the civilians cooperated perfectly and defeated the soldiers who were loyal to Xue Liangqi.
With a bang.
The city gate, which had been closed for several months, was finally opened.
Xiao Yuqi rode against the light, on a tall horse, holding a long sword, like a savior god, stomping his horse's hooves and shouting, "Kill!"
"ah!"
“Go!”
A long team rushed into the city gate. The soldiers who were originally guarding Jing County were frightened by the loud charge and threw away their weapons and armor, sweating profusely.
The first man dropped his weapon and knelt down begging for mercy.
Then, the second, third, fourth...
Countless soldiers knelt on the ground with their heads in their hands.
Their surrender was not forgiven by the people.
The people carried carrying poles, sticks, benches, and even stones.
Something hard that can be held in the hand.
They all became their weapons.
The emotions that had been suppressed for so long suddenly erupted the moment he saw the gods descend.
They cried and shouted, hitting the hideous-looking soldiers with the weapons in their hands again and again.
They were beaten so hard that they begged for mercy.
Beat them till they were pissed and miserable.
However, Xiao Yuqi did not stop this scene.
The tall horse stopped in front of the two brothers who were the most burly and honest in the crowd.
He Hu and He Bao dropped the sickles and axes in their hands in panic.
They fell to their knees with a thud.
Xiao Yuqi looked down at them.
There was no trace of murderous intent in his eyes.
Su Jianyue was right.
The ultimate goal of their uprising was just to survive.
If they could live in peace.
The whole family can have fun.
Who would like to live on the edge of a knife, with no safety in sight?
It seems that they are two simple and honest people.
"Do you know how to get to the prefectural government?"
He Hu reacted immediately.
Kowtow immediately.
"I know. I will take His Majesty away."
He led the way.
For a time, the news that His Majesty had come to the north to save the people from dire straits spread throughout the streets and alleys.
Those hungry, thirsty, and dying people gathered their strength and wanted to go to the governor's mansion to see His Majesty.
They want to use their identity as the people of Tianyu to tell His Majesty about their sufferings and grievances.
Like a child who was beaten up, he didn't cry when he was beaten up badly.
Even when I was hungry and scolded, I didn't cry.
However, when someone came to support them.
Full of grievances, like an erupting volcano.
Can't hold it back anymore.
It gushed out from my chest urgently and I couldn't feel relieved until I got it out.
Xiao Yuqi's people had already completely taken control of the prefectural government.
A huge gold-lacquered plaque hangs high above the dignified and majestic door lintel.
In front of the prefect's mansion, there were two lions made of pure gold.
On the nine white jade steps.
The heavy red door, nailed with golden rivets, was slowly pushed open.
The garden is filled with rockery, gardens, and exotic flowers.
The strong aroma of alcohol wafted into Xiao Yuqi's nose, and he could smell it.
That is the finest grape wine in the Western Regions.
Even for him, the amount he can get in a year is limited.
But as soon as he entered the door, he saw the pool filled with fine wine.
This extravagant scene is even more extravagant than that of the previous Shang King!
