Chapter 165 Chapter 165: Chaos in Xiaocheng (5) [Please vote]
Although the male host wanted to have a good chat with his new "confidant", the situation was so pressing that he had to fill up his food and water bag and take his family with him. The servants hurriedly embarked on their escape. Before leaving, he advised Chu Yao with sincere words: "Brother Fool has a word of advice. Xiaocheng has become a place of right and wrong. Brother Xian, try not to go if you can -"
Chu Yao showed a wry smile: "If you don't have a body, It's up to oneself..."
As for how "I can't help myself", he didn't say.
The male host just gave the advice. Chu Yao refused to listen and he had nothing to do. He just believed in his heart that Chu Yao's death would be a disaster. He said: "Oh, dear brother, please pay attention to safety and take care. You and I are destined to meet again in the future..."
After saying a few words, he got back on the carriage.
Chu Yao watched with a smile until the carriage drove away. The curve at the corner of his mouth disappeared instantly, as if it had never appeared before. He turned back to the restaurant and told the truth about the information he heard: "The cause and effect of the matter are roughly like this..."
The male host is considered a prominent figure in Xiaocheng, even if his information That's not entirely true, but it's much better than ordinary people, such as handymen. At most, when they heard that a war started again, that one could get the news immediately.
Shen Tang: "...they are all crazy!"
Her mood at this time was very complicated.
He was worried about the situation in Xiaocheng and disgusted with the actions of the Geng royal family. She thought Zheng Qiao's perversion was a special case, but now after seeing the actions of Zheng Qiao's half-brothers, she was shocked to realize that Zheng Qiao's perversion was probably hereditary.
Whoever pretends to be crazy and acts stupid to this extent is a ruthless person.
One takes a sow as his wife and the piglets as his sons. They go in and out together, eat and sleep together. The mother was humiliated and the wet nurse was cooked. No one with a normal temperament could handle it. They competed with each other ruthlessly, without any flaws!
Zheng Qiao who forced them is a pervert. They are not crazy even after being forced by such means and can continue to act. Their determination is also very human. Such acting skills are beyond the reach of ordinary people. Even if the Oscars don't award them several statuettes, they won't be able to do it.
Just——
Shen Tang noticed a detail.
The inner prisoner of Gong'e encouraged the "lunatic" who had a pig as his wife to perform a "husband and wife act together" in public for fun. This shows that these palace guards are not normal people. Would normal people like to see this? That's no longer the category of curiosity, it's a perversion!
For a moment I didn’t know who influenced whom.
Chu Yao: "Crazy?"
Shen Tang explained: "It means that they have a disease in their brains. To do such an inhumane act is definitely because they have a disease in their brains!"< br>
Chu Yao understood.
Goro was scolding people to vent his emotions.
So I ignored the details of her swearing and greeting people.
"...I asked that person just now. Not only him, but also some high-ranking members of the Xiaocheng gentry who received the news also fled overnight for the same reason. Zheng Qiao's methods were cruel. My mother's brother could endure such humiliation in order to survive, but I'm afraid he is a more ruthless master than Zheng Qiao at heart..."
What did Zheng Qiao do when he captured Sibao County?
When food and grass were empty, they allowed their soldiers to burn, kill, and plunder their followers everywhere, and even captured people alive to fill the gap. At one time, the people were so scared that they did not dare to go to the streets, even the respectable family members did not dare, for fear that they would be killed while walking. They rushed out to capture and dismember them.
Women and children have not been spared. In recent years, there have been many children with unknown fathers in Sibao County. Most of them were debts incurred at that time.
The governor of Sibao County is one of Zheng Qiao's confidants.
This man took over Sibao County and was extremely flattering to Zheng Qiao. In order to "vigorously revitalize" Sibao County and make up for the shortfall, he tried his best to support the business of Goulan Washe. As the state capital, Xiaocheng has five long streets in the center dedicated to this kind of business. It is also popular in other areas of Sibao County.
He is not involved in production, and he has developed tricks into this business.
The people of Sibao County all complained, but their voices were too weak, and they could only live in dire straits day after day. Now that the war is back, can those who have experienced the catastrophe still sit still?
Escape if you can.
I am afraid that I will be harmed if I step too late.
Shen Tang scolded with an ugly face: "Co-writing is something that an individual can do, but this family doesn't do any of it! Wuhui, Yuanliang, Banbu, we're going back right away... …”
Qishan asked: "Go back? Have you decided?"
Shen Tang: "What's there to decide? Lin Feng and Tu Rong are still in Xiaocheng, and there are still hundreds of us lives outside Xiaocheng!" ”
That place is too dangerous and needs to be moved as soon as possible.
Qi Shan said: "Okay, go back."
Shen Tang thought that even if those two lunatics from the Geng Kingdom suddenly rebelled, Xiaocheng would still be the state capital of Sibao County and could survive for a few days. It should be fine. The group of them rushed back as quickly as possible, taking Lin Feng out first, while the others slowly thought of countermeasures.
She was not naive enough to think that she could turn the tide or prevent a massacre like the heroine in the novel, but she never expected that the Geng Kingdom family would compete with each other crazy, which was not something ordinary people could analyze using common sense.
Halfway through the journey, I encountered more and more fleeing people. Most of them were in a hurry, without packing their belongings or even bringing anyone with them, just trying to escape for their lives. Shen Tang and his party were traveling in the opposite direction to theirs, so they stood out among the crowd.
Some well-meaning people shouted loudly to remind them not to go forward, but the only response they received was the sound of horse hooves and the silhouette of people retreating.
No one expected that Xiaocheng would fall so quickly.
No, someone thought of it.
That is praying for kindness.
He was basically certain that Xiaocheng had fallen, not long after the smoke rose last night. It's not that he knows the enemy's strength, but that he knows the governor of Sibao County. The wallflower who has always been opportunistic and willing to take refuge with whoever is stronger...
He transferred out 5,000 of the Sibao County garrison. None of the powerful and brave warriors are gone. Can the remaining garrison be replaced? It is unknown whether he will defend to the death until the reinforcements return... Even if he can wait, Xiaocheng will defend it. Can he bear Zheng Qiao's accountability?
Demobilizing the garrison troops at the critical moment gave the rebels an opportunity to take advantage of it. No matter how he explained it, in Zheng Qiao's heart, the governor of Sibao County had betrayed him, and he would end up "dead" anyway!
In this case, why not surrender?
That guy is not good at fighting each other, but he is very good at joining the team and changing jobs.
Sure enough, with only three hours left before Xiaocheng, Shen Tang heard the news from the fleeing people that the governor of Sibao County had disappeared. It is said that the county guard wanted to surrender and sent an envoy out of the city to negotiate with the rebels secretly. The result was——
The common man slapped his thigh and cursed, and followed up with a series of curses and greetings: " ...and then disappeared.”
Now Xiaocheng is leaderless and the situation is critical.
I don’t know how many more days I can hold on...
The news on the road became worse and worse.
