Chapter 465: The enemy is at the gates, and the storm is coming
However, they were all loudly reprimanded by King Xixian, and were forbidden to burn, kill, and loot the people in the city.
Someone rubbed his head and muttered, "This doesn't make sense. How could it be so easy to take it down?"
"Could it be that there is some trick waiting ahead?"
On horseback, Xie Yuheng and King Xixian looked at each other, and everything was said without words.
Looking at the empty long street, the Western Wise King shook his head repeatedly, "In my opinion, the King of Wusun and the King of Yilie are no different."
"They are all scoundrels, birds of a feather."
Xie Yuheng nodded, agreeing with King Xixian's opinion.
The capital of any country is of paramount importance. It may not be strictly guarded, but it is almost the same.
She glanced at the bodies of the Wu soldiers. There were only a few of them, far less than the military strength of the capital.
The cavalry captain gritted his teeth and said, "They thought of withdrawing their troops to defend the palace."
"wrong."
Rong Liu raised his index finger and shook it, "Not only have they thought of it, they have already done it."
"I guess all the granaries and grain stores in the city are empty."
"Let's just bet that we can't surround it for long and won't be able to take it down."
His words deeply hurt every soldier who came from the lower class.
He would rather die in battle and lose his country than give up his territory. Such a monarch who does not care about the lives of his people should be chopped into pieces and fed to dogs!
The sound of horse hooves tramples along the long street and into the hearts of every ordinary citizen.
All the lights and candles in the houses facing the street were turned off for fear of bringing about fatal disaster.
The people whose food was forcibly taken away by the imperial guards hid behind the windows and looked out secretly.
But, it's so strange...
Why did the Xiongnu and Liang people start to rob each other after not seeing each other for a long time? Why didn't they massacre the city?
They clearly remembered that Wusun's own army had always been like this.
Some of the older ones had previously followed the army and picked up scraps when the Yuezhi were destroyed.
The horse's hooves clattered forward, leaving only crisp sounds.
Occasionally, a child would cry, but his mouth would be quickly covered and he would not attract any attention.
In a restaurant, Wusun men holding various weapons looked at each other in bewilderment when they saw this situation.
Someone said weakly, "Well, do we still need to go out and stop them?"
No one answered him, however, until the entire army had passed by.
They also did not rush out with swords in hand to die for their country as they had agreed earlier.
The cavalry stopped seven hundred steps away from the palace. The city wall in the distance was full of archers.
If at this time, the Wusun people attacked from behind, they could form a pincer attack from the front and back.
Unfortunately, there is no one… Those who abandon others will be abandoned by others!
……
At the same time, thousands of miles away in the east, in Shangjing, Daliang.
The scene outside the city is similar to the scene in the Wusun Palace.
With the help of merchants from all over the country, and with wars everywhere in Daliang, it would take time to mobilize troops to defend.
Duke Xun Guo was advancing with great momentum and now his troops were at the gates of the city.
The people in the city were worried, but they all voluntarily joined the patrol team.
Since the patrol team was no longer recruiting people, they flocked to the logistics unit, and some people rushed to do the work of moving things, sharpening bamboo arrows, and even cooking!
The lights in all departments of the imperial city were on, and the eyes of officials from all departments were filled with bloodshot.
"They say that those who do business are old foxes who have become cunning. But I see that they are clearly just stupid pigs!"
"They really thought that they would have a good time after Duke Xun came to power. How ridiculous!"
The young official became angrier as he spoke. He simply grabbed the teapot and gulped down some water. He felt better only after choking and coughing.
While counting the amount of food and grass in the city, Xie Mingli calmly replied: "Since the rebel has promised, he will certainly not break his promise."
The young official frowned. "That's impossible. Taxes are already very light now."
"If what the traitor said is true, where does the money in the national treasury come from?"
Xie Mingli raised his head from the grain register and said in a cold voice, "They are squeezing the lower-class people to death."
