"Stop!" Following an order, thousands of ancient soldiers with red eyes from hunger stopped three miles away from Jinyu City, looking at the city one by one, licking their lips subconsciously, their eyes glowing.
According to the plan, another city should have been attacked at least seven days ago.
But the tragedy is that they went the wrong way!
It took a full seven days to come out of the mountains. If it hadn't been for catching a lot of wild animals and picking some wild fruits in the mountains, it would have delayed the time when all the livestock that were taken away when he left were eaten up. I'm afraid he could only kill the mount I'm hungry.
Even so, thousands of people are now hungry with their chests pressed against their backs, and their stomachs are pounding loudly.
Li Qianqiu came to the front of the team on a horned ox, and looked towards the top of the city with a binoculars, and all he saw were terrified faces.
After probably looking at the number of people, I immediately made up my mind.
There are only a few hundred people at the top of the city, and as expected, the interior of Daxia is now empty, and there is no force that can stop this army.
"Flying knights opened the city gates, and then handed over all those who resisted.
The first battalion and the second battalion control the four city gates. Others collect food first, mainly livestock, and others also need to gather in the government office in the city. "Li Qianqiu waved his hand.
It is not difficult to take down this city, even if there is some resistance, it is not an opponent of flying cavalry with nearly a thousand earth wheels.
The next step is to grab food! Grab food! Grab food!
"Kill! Break the city!"
"Kill!" Following Li Qianqiu's order, Shang Qianfei got off his mount, held a long knife, and ran towards the Jinyu City in the distance. It took only three minutes to get there, and there were sparse arrows on the city wall. down.
For these flying knights with the strength of the ground wheel, this arrow can't even interfere, and many people just grab it empty-handed and throw it back.
Then one by one jumped seven or eight meters with the help of the run-up, kicked on the city wall and turned directly onto the city wall.
Ordinary soldiers can't beat one of the flying cavalry in a hundred. Not to mention the current situation, almost two flying knights facing an ordinary soldier.
It is equivalent to two tigers staring at a little white rabbit.
The defenders on the city wall saw these Dayao people jumping onto the three-foot-high city wall, their feet went limp and they couldn't move.
A ray of knife light then lit up.
A near-death scream came down from the city wall.
After a while, the city gate was opened. For this army, the resistance in the city is like a little Luoli shyly shy away from a two-meter-tall and three-hundred-jin man when he faces a man with a delicate voice and a soft body who is easy to push down.
"Go into the city!" Li Qianqiu ordered.
When everyone entered the city gate, the flying cavalry had already killed in the direction of the government office in the middle.
During the period, everyone encountered a little resistance, that is, the Daxia government summoned some well-known warriors in the city, but as soon as they gathered, the city gate was broken.
Then there were a dozen ground wheels facing Qian Feiqi, and their eyeballs were straight at that time.
They were about to surrender after only one face-to-face encounter, but the flying cavalry didn't listen to their nagging, and directly swung their swords to kill them.
In the end, only two people managed to escape from the city quickly.
Of the three thousand soldiers, half of them went to control the city gates in four directions, and the other half started to loot around.
One by one, the flying riders kicked open the closed doors of each house, holding long knives with staring eyes: "Hand over all the food!"
Those civilians in Daxia were frightened to death. When the door was kicked open, they were all hopeless, but they heard the big man with a knife in front of them say: "Hand over all the food!"
Immediately trembling, he put all the food at home in bags and handed it over, and then took the big man with the food on his back and went to the next family.
The civilians who remained in Daxia closed their doors tightly one by one and let out their breath.
The small inn where the three of Li Mengyuan were hiding was not spared. When there was a noise in the yard, the hearts of the three were raised in their throats.
In the end, those Dayao soldiers actually grabbed the food and left, leaving the three of them in the room dumbfounded.
"Are they here to grab food? Dayao can't even eat? I've heard that Dayao is a barren land, but I didn't expect it to be so poor." Yao Zhengyan was a little dumbfounded.
In the wars recorded before, it never said that after the city was broken, only food was robbed and nothing else was robbed.
Most of them are looting, and many of them are raping and looting.
After a military disaster, even if not every family wears mourning, it is almost rare.
These Dayao people are good, they came in to grab the food, they didn't care about anything else, they just left!
It really surprised him.
"I hope nothing will happen this time." The other two are now focused on saving their lives.
Ever since they knew Dayao people were coming to attack the city, the two of them have never let go of their hearts. There are wars and disasters, and there is no place to escape, and if you don't manage it, your head will fall off.
It would be great if those Dayao people grabbed the food now.
Before noon, a large pile of grain had been piled up in the original government office.
There are very few livestock, mostly chickens and ducks, and a few horses and cattle. Most of them are grains such as coarse rice.
From noon until late at night, the smoke in the government office has never stopped.
Thousands of people eat lunch after lunch, dinner after lunch, and supper after dinner. Those thick rice and other things are really useless, and there is very little replenishment of energy and blood.
If it is said that eating meat requires five catties, this kind of thick rice would cost twenty to thirty catties. Almost everyone can barely make up for their body needs by eating half a pot. However, as they move around, they soon feel hungry again.
From afternoon to late night, all soldiers are in a cycle of eating, going out to search for food, sending it back to the government office, eating, continuing to go out to search for food, and eating.
The next day, dozens of scholars were arrested in the city, and Li Mengyuan was among them. Dozens of people were shivering in the middle like livestock waiting to be slaughtered, surrounded by tall and strong men holding shining steel knives.
Li Mengyuan and the others all looked ashen, not knowing what these Dayao people were going to do.
"Distribute the paper and pen to them. I said, you write! Let you go after writing." Li Qianqiu stood on the steps in front of everyone and said in a deep voice.
Only in this way can people feel at ease.
After the pens and papers were handed out, as a few scholars sat cross-legged on the ground, the others followed suit, spreading the paper on the ground and sitting there cross-legged, ready to write.
Li Qianqiu took out a piece of paper and read according to it.
"Xia Baichong was violent and innocent. He led his troops to attack me Dayao for his own selfishness. Now he has lost his troops and lost his generals, and half a million Daxia soldiers are buried in other places. However, Dayao suffered from this calamity. How innocent is he? Er Daxia needs to compensate us. Yao funeral expenses, city repair expenses, land damage expenses, mental loss expenses, tree felling expenses, garbage cleaning expenses, corpse burial expenses... a total of 105 million.
Killing people pays for their lives, paying debts to pay back money, and paying compensation for damaged things are justified. Xia Baichong did something wrong but didn't want to bear the consequences, and refused to pay the compensation, so I, Dayao, took it myself. If you want to blame, you can blame Xia Baichong. "
After Li Qianqiu finished speaking, he patted his head and cursed: "Damn, what a mess?"
"What the hell, why don't you write?" Li Qianqiu yelled at the stunned scholars.
"If the emperor insults, the subject will die. If you insult the emperor of our country, you would rather die than write." A scholar threw his pen and looked up and scolded.
"Pull it out and chop it up. Where is his home? Let's chop it up together." Li Qianqiu waved his hand, and the scholar was dragged out.
"One person does the work and the other person is responsible, so it won't harm the family!" The scholar yelled when he was dragged away.
"This is called sending your family together for a reunion, lest you be lonely on the road alone." Li Qianqiu said that you are really uneducated, and you are also a scholar
With a flash of knife light on that side, a human head fell off, and blood sprayed out for several meters.
"Go and ask, who caught it, where is his family, and send his family on the road." Li Qianqiu said to the guards next to him, and then to the people below: "Master Ren has a good saying that the most important thing is a family." Even if it is round and round, this old man also deeply agrees with it."
"Will you write or die?"
Seeing the scholar beheaded, everyone felt sad.
Everyone scolded these damn barbarians in their hearts, but they didn't dare to show it. No one wants to test whether the neck is stiff or the knife is sharp.
What's more, these savages not only killed people, but also harmed the whole family. Such methods made them dare not resist at all.
But what is more important than life and integrity? For most people, life is more important. I can only comfort myself in my heart, even if I don't write, others will.
After a while, Li Qianqiu took the written paper and said something meaningful: "So the more you read, the worse you are and the less courageous you are."
One sentence made everyone in the room blush with scolding.
Half a day later, these papers were pasted all over the main locations of Jinyu City.
Li Qianqiu searched Jinyu City for two full days, and almost all the livestock were collected together.
In addition, there are a large number of gold, silver, jewelry and salt, all of which were found in those shops and rich families.
As for those small households, Li Qianqiu didn't bother to care about them.
He only needs to grab the most valuable things, and grabbing too many things is not conducive to action.
For the ordinary people in Jinyu City, this is a blessing in misfortune.
"Find some people who know the way and set off tomorrow." Li Qianqiu told the people around him, this time he was not going to take another detour.
An hour later, the three of Li Mengyuan appeared in front of Li Qianqiu again.
Most of the common people have never left Jinyu City Baili in their entire life.
Li Mengyuan, three scholars who came from outside, fell into Li Qianqiu's clutches again.
Looking at the sultry General Dayao in front of them, the three of them wanted to cry but had no tears.
