Iron Tiger went to the gate again to shout, but the gate of Gyeongju was closed, and no one came out to answer.
In Seongnae, Gyeongju, several tyrants who control the horse are gathered together and are discussing how to deal with it. With the army approaching the city, they certainly couldn't be ignorant of everything. Officially because they knew, they hesitated how to deal with it.
Originally, according to their ideas, even if the imperial court sent reinforcements, they should go to support Prion State first. Gyeongju is in the last place, and when the court's troops arrive, they will be able to fully control the city of Gyeongju. At that time, there will be soldiers and horses and money and food, not to mention negotiating the terms of peace with the court, even if they are self-proclaimed kings.
In today's world, although the tyrannical landlords are extremely wealthy, but without the rank of lord, they are not even farts. They have worked hard to earn money, and they have to lick their faces and send it up obediently. No one wants to be an obedient pug all the time, and now is the time to revolt.
The Gyeongju Army has been supported by them, and they all know what kind of virtue it is. The tyrannical landlords usually support a lot of family warriors, otherwise it is impossible to react so quickly to form a guard army after an accident. Originally, they had a good abacus, but they never expected that it would be the Northern War King and the Yanzhou Army.
Who is the Northern War King? It was an invincible killer. The Beidi people are not afraid, can they be afraid of them
There are also timid and fearful among the tyrants. Seeing the silence in the hall, they suggested: "Why don't you open the city gate and welcome people in first?"
His words made the originally silent hall even more quiet. Sitting at the head was Shi Kairen, the head of the Shi family. The wealth of the Shi family can rival the country. Half of the guards were from the Shi family. Shi Kairen, the head of the Shi family, naturally became the leader of the tyrannical family.
Everyone looked at him subconsciously, and saw Shi Kairen sneer: "If you are afraid, go out and beg for mercy. The princes and generals are so kind? The dog at the feet of the Ye Jing family?"
What he said was outrageous, but no one dared to refute it. The Shi family has always been one of the best in Gyeongju, and even Zuoqiu, the main general, has to look at his three-point face.
The person who spoke first looked embarrassed, but didn't say anything.
Someone saw that Shi Kairen was determined to fight, and suggested cautiously: "But outside the city is the King of the Northern War. He has a fierce reputation, and he has never been defeated. If it is a match..."
Shi Kairen smiled contemptuously: "What if there is no defeat? He ran long distances and was tired of people and horses, and there was no sufficient food and grass supply outside the city. If we dragged on for half a month and a month, they would not be able to support it. We can wait, but Yuanzhou can't. If he gives up Qingzhou and goes to Yuanzhou to support, then we will have enough time to eat Qingzhou. At that time, what the court said will not count. Either he will stick to Qingzhou and wait until the city of Yuanzhou is broken, and the group of refugees will hit Yejing. Go, even if you kill a god, you have to lose your head. What should we be afraid of?"
He had a gloomy expression and a scheming attitude. The tyrannical man who was originally afraid of the fierce name of the Northern War King was gradually persuaded by him, and he began to feel relieved. He smiled and complimented the master planner of the Shi family.
It's just that they didn't wait for them to say a few more words, but they heard a loud noise in the distance, and even the ground began to shake, and wood slag and dust fell from the beams above their heads, scaring the faces of these tyrants who were still talking nonsense just now. Embarrassed, he fled outside.
"What's the matter? Earth Dragon turned over?"
After finally escaping to the open space, the tyrants are no longer decent, and the Shi family is stronger, but also has a look of fear. The loud noise came vaguely from the direction of the city gate, one after another, without stopping at all.
Before they could figure out what was going on, they saw the city gate guard rushing toward the city gate and said in panic, "The city gate can't be held anymore!"
Gyeongju City Gate is as solid as a rock, how could it fall so quickly
Shi Kairen's face sank, and he said fiercely: "What's going on? Make it clear!"
The guard was injured, with blood mixed with dust and dust on his body. He looked frightened and stammered: "They threw a kind of black stone at the city gate, and the black stone exploded as soon as it was thrown, but it was only four or five. One, the city gate will be blown loose!"
Shi Kairen's face was dark, but he didn't know what the black stone that could destroy the city gate was.
It was just that before he could figure it out, he heard the loud noise and stopped, and then the Wu Yangyang men and horses came to surround them, leading one person with strong determination and fierce momentum, but the words they said were heart-wrenching. A trembling: "The court reinforcements are approaching the city, but you refuse to open the city gate. What? Are you going to rebel?"
Shi Kairen is still calm, but other tyrants are not as courageous as him. They were used to living a pampered life, and although they were dissatisfied with the oppression of the Ye Jing family, they didn't have the courage to rebel. To the point where they were today, they were all choices made under the coercion and temptation of the Shi family. Now, when I really see the army that killed people, just looking at the momentum makes my legs go weak.
Hao Qiang knelt on the ground, tremblingly said: "I can't wait, it's just..." It was just something, but he didn't say it for a long time.
The corner of Xiao Zhige's mouth twitched, his eyes fixed on Shi Kairen, who was still standing in the middle. Shi Kairen was over forty years old, tall and thin, wearing a splendid robe. Although he was a little embarrassed, he was quite imposing. There seems to be no fear. He squinted his eyes and looked at Xiao Zhige, then put on a false smile and said, "Seeing is better than seeing. King Bei Zhan is indeed a god of war. I have been waiting for Qingzhou for a long time, but I have not been waiting for reinforcements. I heard someone shouting outside the city. , I thought it was a scam, just now I was discussing this matter, but I didn't want the prince to break the city gate and come in..."

He said this as if Xiao Zhige couldn't wait for them to open the city gate.
Xiao Zhige's smile was slightly cold, but he was impatient to play tricks with him, and looked at him condescendingly and said, "This king has ordered to come to pacify the chaos. What is the situation in Qingzhou, please report it first."
After speaking, the horse went straight to the general's mansion, and the 20,000 Yanzhou troops behind him moved, neat and vigorous. Far from being comparable to the Gyeongju Army. Xie Ling was also on this trip, so he stepped forward, looked at them with a half-smile, and said, "Everyone, please. Your time is precious, so it's hard to delay."
The General's Mansion was vacant at this time. Twenty thousand soldiers went to guard each other. A pair of men and horses stayed behind and quickly took control of the General's Mansion. Xiao Zhige sat in the hall and drank a cup of tea before the tyrants walked. And to.
They usually travel in limousine carriages, so how can they walk in such a troubled time. There was Xie Ling urging from behind, and when they rushed over, they were all out of breath.
Because he refused to open the city gate before, Xiao Zhige had already sharpened his knives to them, and his attitude was not good at this time. He didn't even give up his seat, so he began to ask about the situation in Qingzhou city and the deployment of troops.
In Gyeongju City, the powerful guards occupy the west gate and the south gate. This is the south gate, and most of them are the residences of the rich and powerful. The refugees controlled the northern city, occupying the east gate and the north gate. In the middle is the long street as the boundary, and the two sides have sent people to guard. Although there is no large-scale battle, there are many frictions and small-scale fights. Until Xiao Zhige arrived, a delicate balance was maintained in the city.
"There are ten thousand guards in the city?"
Xiao Zhige raised his brows and looked at them coldly: "Occupying land and fields, raising private soldiers, refusing to open the city gate..."
"Who gave you the courage?" Xiao Zhige's voice sank, and he looked at them with a chilling expression.
Some people were so frightened that they didn't dare to argue, but there were also people who refused to admit their accounts. Shi Kairen raised his head and said, "Your Highness has wronged us. The land purchase and sale are all based on your love and I am willing to sign the contract. How can we invade the fields and houses? Besides supporting private soldiers, if there were no such private soldiers, Qingzhou City would have been captured by the refugees long ago. I don't dare to take credit, but I can't bow down and confess my guilt! I also ask the lord to investigate!"
Seeing that Shi Kairen opened his mouth, the others seemed to have found the backbone, and they all agreed.
Xiao Zhige waited for them to say enough, then raised his hand and asked Zhou Helan to bring the evidence that he had prepared. On this trip, he took the idea of killing the tyrants and civilians first, and then taking care of the refugees with tenderness. Naturally, he would not be unprepared for these tyrants. Zhou Helan had been in and out of the southern states and counties for some time, and he often dealt with powerful landlords. At this time, it was best to collect evidence.
A box of evidence was placed on the side, and Xie Ling picked up a random copy and said: "In the thirteenth year of the Qingli calendar, Shi Qian, the second son of the Shi family, took a fancy to a peasant girl and wanted to accept her as a concubine, but the peasant girl refused, Shi Qian Angrily kills the peasant daughter's parents, and takes the peasant daughter forcibly..."
"In the 14th year of the Qingli calendar, when the green and yellow did not come together, the Shijia Qianzhuang put money in the form of 'lamb interest'. The following autumn, more than 100 tenants were unable to repay, the land was forcibly occupied to repay the interest, and there were also good-looking peasant girls forcibly. Mortgage to pay off debts…”
Over and over again, tyrannical landlords are rampant, and the crimes they have committed are indescribable. And the powerful Shi family is even more unscrupulous, relying on the government to look at his face and rely on him for support, arrogant to the point where they don't even bother to cover up. As long as the Shi family likes fields, women... they can grab them openly. Over the years, I do not know how many tenants have become the victims of the Shi family to make money, and I do not know how many good daughters have been forcibly robbed by the Shi family. The Shi family's mansion is splendid and splendid, comparable to the Forbidden Palace in Yejing.
Xiao Zhige threw the evidence on Shi Kairen's face, without giving him a chance to argue, and said coldly: "The Shi family are all waiting, raising private soldiers, occupying land, killing innocent people indiscriminately, and forcibly robbing people's daughters... Nothing, one crime is unforgivable. The king's order is passed on, and the Shi family members will be arrested immediately. The main culprit will be beheaded in the city tomorrow, and the accomplices will be beheaded. The rest of the family members, except those who were forcibly robbed, will be exiled for 3,000 miles. "
Shi Kairen's body trembled, his eyes were splitting and he said: "If you want to add guilt, there is no excuse for it! This is slander! I don't accept it!"
His eyes widened, his eyes rolled in his sockets, as if thinking of something, he quickly said: "I am the prince's in-law, and my daughter is the prince Liangdi. Who among you dares to kill me! I want to see the prince!"
Xiao Zhige looked at him indifferently as he struggled to the death, and only ordered: "Drag it, and execute him in front of the long street tomorrow!"
Even if Shi Kairen had all kinds of strategies, it would not be useful at this time. He glared angrily and was dragged down, roaring without realizing it. When the rest of the tyrants saw that the Shi family was cut down in a few words, their courage was about to break, and they bowed their heads to the ground and kept begging for mercy.
Xiao Zhige didn't plan to kill them all, so he glanced at Xie Ling. Xie Ling knowingly stepped forward to comfort him: "You don't have to worry, the lord is very careful, he won't let go of a traitor, but he won't wrong the innocent."
The tyrants became even more timid when they heard him say that. Who can be here, who hasn't done anything wrong? Even if he didn't do anything wrong, someone in the family did something and got people's lives. They looked at Xiao Zhige nervously, as if they were waiting for his death sentence.
Xie Ling smiled slightly, seeing that the goal of shock and deterrence had been achieved, and said gently: "No one is a sage and a sage. The prince is not a person who will kill them all. Now Qingzhou is in chaos, the people are suffering from displacement, and the prince is kind and caring for the people. Everyone. If you can get over the merits, it's not too late."
As for the method of overcoming the merits, he did not explicitly say, but the people here are all human beings, and there is no one who does not understand.
After looking at each other for a long time, they all said with a sad face: "I am willing to do my best for the prince and the people of Qingzhou."
