Chapter 125: The First Eight Banners (Part I)

Wang Hongyi stood on the high platform, his brows furrowed, and looked at the city.

Hundreds of guards were quietly guarding the left and right, and before they knew it, a few hours passed.

During this time, scouts and Pegasus constantly reported the battle situation in the city.

Qian Qingfu was clearly killed again, and the general Fu Xin was also very cooperative, but in the end some troops were not controlled, of course, the most hateful were the few small clans of the mountain tribe, these small clans came slowly, but they did not lose much, and then they raged in the city.

This plus the remnants of the resistance, there are more than 1,000 people, has been divided and surrounded by Ding Huchen, and a team of 100 people rushed out at the cost of their lives, but was finally blocked by Ding Huchen, and surrounded and eliminated.

Even outside the city, you can still hear the distant sounds of killing, and the flames in the city.

As time passed, the sky gradually broke, the pale cyan sky was inlaid with a few remnant stars, the earth was hazy, like a light veil shrouded in silver-gray, a moment later, a scout Pegasus came, and reported a good news to Wang Hongyi: Yongchang County has been completely controlled in his hands, and there are Yongchang troops in the city, all of whom have abandoned their weapons and surrendered, and Ding Huchen and Fu Xin, the general, are waiting at the gate of the city.

Wang Hongyi listened to it and muttered: "Once you will become famous, ten thousand bones will wither!"

However, Yongchang County has been defeated, and although there are 6,000 people in Yueshan County, it is absolutely impossible to resist, and it can be pacified as soon as it is paid.

Maybe even in a few days, the envoys of Yueshan County will come to offer seals.

There are seven counties in Xiyi Prefecture, one more county than us, Yueshan County and Yongchang County will fall, and Jianshan, Yuecheng, Qinghe, and Quang Ninh will all fall into the hands.

It was time to send Ding Huchen to Dingnan County as a general of Pingman.

However, the Han population is not large, and the mountain tribe is large, so it is about to be lined up at this time.

Wang Hongyi slowly looked around at the soldiers, satisfied with their morale, this is an army that can fight well.

Looking around for a long time, Wang Hongyi ordered: "Enter the city!"

"No!"

The army marched towards the city, its own army entered the city first, and when the Chinese army reached the city gate, the tiger guards marched forward in a row, forming a protective area.

At the city gate, there are three zhang, one sentry, five chiefs and one column, and the standing ground is all soldiers sent by Ding Huchen.

Seeing Wang Hongyi coming, the black pressed a crowd, and suddenly fell to his knees with a bang: "I'll wait for the criminal official (will) to meet the Marquis of Shu!"

At this moment, the sun rose into the sky, and the golden light sprinkled down, reflecting a thin light of transparent lilac through the dots of gold.

It can be seen that in addition to this, the city gate is quiet and cold, Wang Hongyi smiled faintly, these people are all demoted, and even considered meritorious service to the city, at this time, it is not good to ask more, and said: "Get up!"

The crowd of people who descended to greet each sang their names according to their status, and presented flags, long knives, household registers and other things that symbolize their surnames, and it was rare for them to find out in one night.

After receiving it, the army entered the city, and among the houses along the street that exposed the walls, of course, there were also people, all of whom were confined and did not dare to come out.

It's just that the more he walked in, the more ugly Wang Hongyi's face became, and in the end, the team stopped directly, not that the doors were closed at the beginning, and a large number of people appeared in front of them.

Because the fire is still burning, although many people are fighting the fire, it is difficult to control the fire, and these people who have lost their homes are crying.

Seeing this miserable state and seeing some buried fires, Wang Hongyi's heart seemed to be hit by something, and his anger rose immediately.

Qian Qingfu actually wanted to drag the people of the city to death, he was really a bastard, and the original sympathy disappeared immediately.

"Pass the order, the army quickly extinguishes the fire in the city, and rescues the people!" Wang Hongyi immediately issued an order.

"No!" a few guards took the tokens and went to deliver the order.

Those in power really don't care about the life and death of the people? Climb up, just for their children and grandchildren to earn glory and glory, multiply from generation to generation, and have endless dignity, these are really not important?

Looking at the people crying in the firelight, the men and women who wept bitterly after losing their homes and relatives, Wang Hongyi only felt that his heart sank.

He is no longer an ordinary person, and his own hegemony and the reproduction of his children and grandchildren are naturally necessary, but more importantly, he is to bear the destiny given by history and the nation.

This familiar clichΓ©, in this position, really makes him have endless aftertastes.

God has given him enough foreshadowing, has a chance to do it again, and has a loving mother, a good wife, a beautiful concubine and a young son, Wang Hongyi watched all this.

In addition to fulfilling the long-cherished wish of the previous life and fighting for the world, as a king, he also has a responsibility that is difficult to retreat.

It is my basic responsibility to let the people under my rule no longer suffer from famine, no longer be harassed by war, and no longer be separated from their wives.

The second is to open up wasteland and expand the circle of interests.

Wang Hongyi's eyes were firmly fixed on everything in front of him, thinking like this, at this time, of course, it was impossible to have the so-called heart movement, epiphany, which led to a great change in luck.

I saw that the tripod vessel was running in the luck, the silk white gas became thicker, and quickly turned into green gas in the tripod, from yesterday to now, the tripod vessel was gradually filled with three products of the container, and so on after the seven counties of Xiyi were included, it was the three products of the container.

If this container is sufficient, the green qi will reach the top, and the next step is to exude the purple qi, and it will be expected to enter the king.

Now it seems that the entire Guyi Prefecture has gone through a great chaos and its vitality has been greatly damaged, and I am afraid that it may not be able to support itself to enter the ranks of the real kings.

However, he can be the Duke of Shu.

Wang Hongyi felt this change, and his heart was happy.

"Lord, are you okay?" the general looked at Wang Hongyi and pondered for a moment, his expression was unusual, and he asked with concern.

Wang Hongyi came to his senses at this time and said, "It's okay to be alone." ”

He pointed to the dead people on the street, and said lightly: "Once the fire in the city has been extinguished, let people bury these corpses at once!"

"No. ”

Wang Hongyi looked at the tragic scene in front of him, sighed and sighed: "Qian Qingfu is crazy!"

Not wanting to think about it any more, he turned his head and took a closer look at the terrain around him.

I saw that the street where I am currently located is very spacious, and it must be a prosperous area in Pingshu.

It's a pity that at this time, most of the shops on both sides of the street were destroyed by the fire, and the people who escaped looked miserable with either blood or ink on their faces.

In the case of the fire in the city, some large households took the initiative to send people to assist the Shu army in extinguishing the fire.

Where Wang Hongyi is currently located, he can see a group of young people under the command of an old man, trying their best to extinguish the fire on the side of the street.

The general followed Wang Hongyi's gaze, and was also a little surprised when he saw the actions of this group of people.

"Send someone over and help. Wang Hongyi looked at it for a while, and said to the people around him: "Also, write down the name of this person and the people who helped at this time." ”

Whether it is sincerity or flattery, this good deed is real, and politics pays attention to practice, and does not pay attention to the so-called heart without looking at action like religion.

"Yes, my lord. "This man answered.

Since Wang Hongyi ordered the pro-army not to slack off, a battalion came forward to rescue, plus the original soldiers, as well as the people, the fire was gradually extinguished.

Wang Hongyi stared at the group of people until he extinguished the nearby fire, and said: "The destruction of the city's property is only temporary, and the people's will is fundamental. ”

"What the Marquis of Shu said is. At this moment, a little farther away, there was a sound of echoing.

Wang Hongyi looked at it, and saw the Taoist priest Shui Jing who had asked to see before, standing not far away, looking at himself with a smile, but he didn't come up, he knew that there was a guard area at this time, and he ran up in vain only to be shot.

"It turned out to be a water mirror!" Wang Hongyi nodded slightly on the horse and ordered left and right: "Let him come over." ”

"Shuhou's words are really reasonable, if Qian Qingfu understands this reason, he will not suffer this death. Shui Jing said, coming to Wang Hongyi's horse.

Wang Hongyi asked, "Why is the Water Mirror Daoist here?"

"The Marquis of Shu ordered me to recruit the Jingshan clan in the mountains, I did not disgrace the mission, it has been completed, but when I returned, I saw that the Marquis of Shu had broken Yongchang City, which was really congratulatory. ”

"Just seeing the fire in the city, it's sad and lamentable!" Shui Jing looked at the fire that had not been extinguished in the distance, and said: "I have failed, but I still have to do this monstrous evil thing, not only in the Yin Si, but also in the family." ”

At this time, a general came to reply to his life.

Wang Hongyi ordered to go down, ordered to maintain order in the city, and inspected the situation in the city.

Hearing that the fire in the county guard's mansion had been extinguished, Wang Hongyi turned his head and said, "If the Taoist chief has nothing else to do, let's go and have a look." ”

That's exactly what I mean. Shui Jing said with a faint smile.

At this time, most of the fires in Yongchang City were extinguished.

Along the way, some corners are like ghosts, and the streets that used to be full of people are empty, and occasionally some figures float in the shadows.

The doors of several houses are open, and the big mouth of the black hole is cracked, but it is even more desolate.

Although the bones of the streets have been collected and gathered in one place, you can still see large traces of blood, and occasionally in some places, you can also see the scars of knives and axes, as well as some corpses that have not yet had time to be concentrated.

When the group arrived in front of the dark county guard's mansion, most of it was charred, and only the wood was still smoking.

Wang Hongyi reined in his horse, and someone came over to salute: "Report to the Lord, no one in the county guard mansion survived, and a few people have been arrested, saying that they saw Qian Qingfu enter the county guard mansion [***]. ”

"Oh, bring those guys here. ”

"No. While speaking, several soldiers were pushed in front of Wang Hongyi's horse.

"Did you see with your own eyes that Qian Qingfu [***] died?" asked Wang Hongyi immediately.

"General Hui, that's true, the big marshal seems to be crazy, first killed his own family, and then rushed straight into the sea of fire!"

Although they didn't know who the young man in front of them was, these soldiers could see that the person in front of them was a big official, and now that the city was broken, several of them had become prisoners of the other party, and if they wanted to save their lives, they had to act well.

Whatever Wang Hongyi asked, they answered, and asked what they wanted to know, and Wang Hongyi asked these soldiers to take them down.

"What a treacherous place. Looking at the mansion in front of him, Shui Jing said.

Wang Hongyi turned his head to look at him, turned his head, and also looked at the county guard in front of him, which had been extinguished by the fire, but had become a ruin.
