Chapter 348 See you late

"The emperor has collapsed."

Hundreds of thousands of migrant workers along both sides of the river suddenly heard a sharp howl.

Looking up, I saw that there were already vague figures on the largest dragon boat.

Some people cried and ran, some shot arrows, some jumped into the water in a hurry, swam to the shore, and ran away while pulling their armor.

And that huge dragon boat gradually tilted, slowly and uncontrollably sank into the river.

"The boat is sinking..."

Everyone stopped what they were doing at this moment, and stood there in a daze.

They turned a blind eye to the dragon boats that lined up in a long line and were about to turn around and return.

"Who is that man? He dared to kill the king and assassinate him. The emperor was really killed by him. It's amazing."

A middle-aged man with a dark complexion, who was buried in clearing the mud, raised his head and exclaimed.

"Didn't you understand? It's the backer king, Yang Lin, the lord of Jiangdu."

Next to him was a middle-aged man in a scribe's white shirt that had been washed yellow, with an abnormally bright red on his face.

"Last time, when Yangzhou released the recruitment list, I thought about going there, after all, the conditions they gave were too good.

However, thinking about the imminent arrival of the imperial army, it would be worthless, so there will be no past. "

The middle-aged scribe sighed with regret.

"Yang Lin, is he so powerful? As far as I know, there is Yu Wenshang from the Yuwen Clan on the dragon boat, and You Chuhong from the Dugu Clan.

These two are world-renowned master-level masters, and it is not easy to assassinate Yang Guang in their hands. "

"Who is Xiongtai, and he doesn't look like someone unknown, but he didn't know that the backer king had shown his supernatural power a few days ago, and the evil king Shi Zhixuan had suffered a big loss in his hands, and now he was seriously injured and fled, hiding in the mountains.

Although Yu Wenshang and You Chuhong are famous, they are still inferior to Xie Wang, so how can they stop him?

In my opinion, although the world is big, except for the three great masters, no one can suppress him by force. This person, the general trend has been achieved. "

A man with a yellow face selling cakes next to him smiled gently.

"How do you know that he has become a great trend?"

The black and strong man glanced out of the corner of his eyes, and saw the yellow-faced man disguised as a shoulder pole, which was quite extraordinary, showing a trace of metallic light in the yellow.

There was a movement in his heart, and he asked with a smile.

"Hey, with the speed with which King of the Mountain started his business, the world doesn't think of anyone else. I originally thought he was messing around, but later I found out that he wasn't.

Firstly, posting the recruitment list, and then enfeoffing the fields, recruiting troops...

I heard that the people under Yangzhou’s rule have now been exempted from taxes for three years, and those who serve as soldiers and eat food are exempted from taxes for life..."

The yellow-faced man's eyes were full of astonishment, and he said again: "Those who give up small profits must have big plans. He wins the hearts of the army and the people, and recruits experts and talents. Compared with Li Zitong and Du Fuwei in Jiangdong, he is far more clever than Li Zitong and Du Fuwei.

The reputation has never been spread before, and the people of the world have never heard of this person, so the momentum has not been shown.

After defeating the evil king Shi Zhixuan, he is already expected to be the world's top master.

Especially in today's battle, among hundreds of thousands of troops, defeating two top grandmasters in a row, killing one and defeating the other, and then cutting off Yang Guang's head, he will not be famous if he wants to. "

The middle-aged man in white clothes nodded slightly: "Yes, in this world, Yang Lin's reputation is as great as the resentment towards the Hunjun.

After today, Luoyang and Chang'an, Jiangnan and Jiangbei must all spread his reputation.

Even though he bears the title of a regicide, it makes people taboo three points.

However, with the blessing of this reputation, there will be some people of insight in the world who want to go and take a gamble on their future. "

"exactly."

The black-faced man suddenly smiled and said, "I don't know if the two brothers are also thinking of going to the backer king and seeking a meritorious service from the dragon?"

"Conglong? Haha, it's too early to say, too early to say.

Since ancient times, it has been extremely difficult to rule the north from the south. If the king of the mountain wants to succeed, he must first gather all the thieves and bandits in the east of the river.

Now that there is an incident in Taiyuan and Chang'an is in a hurry, I think the Li family has a better chance. "

"Not necessarily. Wagang is very powerful, and the soldiers are coming to Luoyang. The soldiers are fine and food is sufficient, and they are expected to rule the world." The yellow-faced man said hesitantly.

The black-faced man pondered for a while, then hesitantly said: "Why do I think that Captain Liu Wuzhou of Beidi Yingyang is the most likely to succeed?

I heard that he has Turkic support behind him...

Now that the Central Plains is in chaos, once the Turks enter the pass, there will be no force in the world that can resist it. At that time, Liu Wuzhou will take advantage of it.

Although this is not very pleasant to say.

Relying on the power of the aliens, he came to fight for the world for himself.

Even if you win the world, you can't convince people.

However, thinking like this in my heart, in fact, everyone has to admit that this is actually a very good way.

The Turkic barbarians only know how to destroy and plunder. If they want to garrison a city or a place, it is impossible to farm with peace of mind.

If you borrow their soldiers, you don't have to worry about being turned back by the opponent.

Once someone has their support, as long as some conditions are met and some promises are made, the benefits they will receive are too great.

In comparison, the lost thing is not worth mentioning.

As soon as the black-faced man said this, all three of them were speechless.

Just silently watching the river.

The surface of the water was already in chaos at this time, and thousands of ships turned around.

From time to time, people fell into the water, and the people on both sides of the strait also became agitated, and they heard the discussion of "the king of the mountain, Yang Lin" everywhere.

The people with their children and daughters, some with disheveled faces, some headed north, some people went south in a daze.

There are still many people calling out to their neighbors.

"Go to Jiangdu, where the fields are divided, and the army is exempt from tax and tax... Not only that, but there are also open warehouses for food, so if you go there, you will not die of hunger."

As soon as the words came out, someone responded.

"I know Yang Lin, King of the Mountain, he is the most benevolent and caring for the common people.

Last month, my nephew from Yuanfang sent me a letter, saying that Yangzhou City is no longer on the road, and the people are happy and peaceful. "

"Brother, don't be fooled. How can there be such a good official in the world? Aren't they all skinned? What's more, the Yang family is nothing."

"Bah, Hongnong Yang's family and Shanye Yang's family, are they the same thing?

The backer king is the backer of the common people, not the same as those dignitaries.

He was born in the grasslands, hunted and farmed, and knows the sufferings of the people, so don't be verbose, anyway, you will know it when you go there.

I've never heard of any banditry in Yangzhou... If you don't think it's suitable, then just leave, and no one will leave trouble. "

"Go together, go together..."

Someone followed suit.

Then a group of hundreds of people gathered and headed south under the leadership of an old man familiar with the road.

The yellow-faced man had very good eyesight, and he saw that there were hundreds of such gatherings.

All I saw was a dark stream of people, turning slowly, and gradually converging into a huge stream of people.

"What the people want, the general trend has come."

He looked slightly dazed, and when he looked back, he saw the slightly flickering eyes of the black-faced man and the white-clothed middle-aged man, sighed, turned his head away, and never looked back.

The Great Sui Dynasty is dead, but the people of the world will continue to live.

In the end who wins and who loses, who gets the deer, we have to wait and see.

Everyone has their own standpoint and their own ties, and each will go his own way.

I just hope that I don't have to face this backer king so early.

Thinking of the other party's martial arts skills of beheading kings and generals among thousands of troops, anyone would feel a chill in his heart.

Such a hero.

It's a pity that it's too late to meet each other.

……

Chapter 349 Meet the Prince

The mountains outside Liyang City.

Sima Dekan sat high on the horse with a stern expression on his face.

"These rebellious officials and thieves, the mob, dare to stop the heavenly soldiers, they really want to die.

Give me a horse to step into the camp and get through the way. "

Some people set up a stronghold, while others guard it.

Detours cannot be detoured.

If they don't pull out this nail on the road, once they march, they will face a gunshot from the back, which is extremely uncomfortable to think about.

So, he had to fight.

At least, this army that came all the way from Yangzhou must be beaten to death and maimed.

It is common sense for the emperor to travel, and ghosts and gods will retreat along the road.

He had no idea that there would be someone who was desperately preparing to intercept it, which was simply the greatest joke in the world.

Ten thousand Xiaoguo riders shouted, and under the leadership of the general, they pushed forward all the way, full of murderous intent.

These people are dressed in blood-colored bright armor, purple-gold leopard helmets, and blood eagles tattooed on their arms. They are all fierce and fierce.

Especially when the morale is still there, ten thousand people are like one person, riding horses and slashing with long soldiers, even a huge mountain in front of them will be beaten to collapse.

As soon as the Yangzhou army took over the battle, it felt very difficult.

Especially the Xiaoguo army under Yuwen's command who had recently surrendered, saw his former colleagues, and now he has become a traitor again, and he was extremely weak and exhausted in the fight, and was weaker before the battle.

Fu Junchuo and Xu Ziling took the lead, jumping vertically and horizontally.

See where it is about to collapse, and go there to save the scene. I was sweating profusely for a while, but I just barely stopped the decline.

Amidst people shouting and neighing, people fell into a pool of blood from time to time.

Sima De's face was as cold as ice, and he gave orders.

The flag bearers waved their semaphore, and ten thousand cavalry ran in circles, taking turns to attack, seemingly endlessly.

After attacking continuously for half an hour, seeing that the position had been moved back by an arrow, and the opponent was still supporting, he couldn't hold back.

"My colleagues, follow the future."

As soon as he gave an order, there was a thunderbolt.

Counting the casualties, the Yangzhou Army has lost about 3000 people at this time, while the cavalry of our own side has only lost less than a thousand people.

This ratio of casualties is purely due to the gap between the soldiers themselves and cannot be made up.

Not many people were injured by the Yangzhou soldiers, but Sima Dekan, as a veteran, had already keenly noticed that the opponent's morale had plummeted.

As long as the offensive is strengthened, the opponent's entire army is likely to collapse.

"What backing king, shit."

Sima Dekan clamped his legs, and the sweaty horse under his crotch hissed...

Holding a halberd in his hand, he pointed forward, and several generals followed behind, waiting to speed up and sprint.

"The emperor is dead."

"The Emperor is dead..."

"The fleet has returned."
