Chapter 413: Close the city gates and prohibit entry and exit
"......." The master took a deep breath and pursed his lips.
"I heard that the reason why it rained in Pinghe City was because it surrendered to the Heavenly God Army."
"The God's Army!" Prefect Tong frowned and looked at his master in confusion, "Are they rebels?"
If you are not a rebel, you will not use the word "surrender".
At this moment, he remembered the outrageous words that had appeared on the streets of Shiquan City before.
Could it be that the “Army of God” is the army under the throne of the so-called God King?
Did someone really take advantage of the natural disaster to rebel?
If the Heavenly God Army could really control the rain, who knows, the world might really change hands.
Apart from anything else, the common people will be the first to turn against the Heavenly God Army.
"Yes!" The master nodded, "It is said that Brahma City, Pingliang City and Pinghe City have all joined the Heavenly God Army."
"Furthermore, after these three cities surrendered to the Heavenly God Army, nectar immediately fell from the sky, alleviating the disaster."
"It is said that the refugees who went to Brahma City before were all incorporated into the God Army."
The master looked at the increasingly dark complexion of Tong Zhifu, took a deep breath, and continued,
"I heard that the number of rebels in the God Army has reached 30..."
"30 rebels!?" Magistrate Tong's pupils trembled, and a hint of fear flashed in his eyes.
There are only more than 30 soldiers defending Shiquan City. How can they fight against rebels?
The people in the city are still running frantically towards Pinghe City, and the number of rebels will only increase.
Magistrate Tong slumped down on the chair, looking as if he had lost all hope in life.
The lawyer looked at Magistrate Tong with a troubled expression, not knowing what to say for a moment.
If he was concerned about the people, his suggestion would of course be to surrender directly to avoid unnecessary casualties.
The gap between us and the enemy is too great, there is no need for a fight at all.
But he didn't dare say that.
Tong Zhifu's sister was the emperor's concubine and was pregnant with a prince.
Anyone would surrender, but Magistrate Tong certainly would not. He was only waiting for his sister to take the position and lead the Tong family to prosperity.
After a moment, Tong Zhifu took a deep breath and said solemnly,
"Give orders to close the city gates and prohibit anyone from entering or leaving."
"Just wait a little longer. The capital should send troops to support us soon..."
After a pause, Magistrate Tong looked at the master and continued,
"Send someone to Wuyi City to spread the news that the rebels are coming."
At this point, Magistrate Tong suddenly remembered that he had not yet asked who the leader of the rebels was.
However, he could guess that it was most likely the Xiao family's private soldiers who had risen up in rebellion.
Emperor Wu of Liang’s worries were indeed not unfounded.
It's a pity that Emperor Wu of Liang was timid and always wanted to incorporate Xiao family's private army instead of directly destroying it, which led to the consequences today.
"Who is the rebel leader!?"
"...Prince Yongchang!" The master raised his eyelids and looked at Prefect Tong, "Xiao Yunzhan of the Xiao family."
Who could have thought that the Xiao family, who had been beaten half to death by Emperor Wu of Liang and then had their property confiscated and exiled two months ago, could gather such a large number of rebels so quickly.
Apart from anything else, just providing food and fodder for 300,000 rebels is a huge expense.
He heard that the Xiao family was favored by the God King, and that food and fodder had always been a gift from heaven.
This alone is enough to make people envious. There is no need to worry about money and food, all you need to do is to reorganize the army.
It seems that the Xiao family is destined to succeed.
Otherwise, why did Emperor Wu of Liang beg for help from everyone, offer sacrifices to his ancestors, and issue an edict of repentance, but still fail to get even a drop of rain?
Whichever city the Xiao family attacked, it would rain heavily. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell who was the ruler of the world chosen by God.
When Prefect Tong heard this, he realized that it was just as he had expected. The attack came from the direction of Brahma City, and no one else had the strength to do so except the Xiao family.
However, he still had some doubts about the fact that the Xiao family was protected by the Divine King.
"Send someone to investigate whether it is true that the Divine King is protecting the Xiao family."
"Also, have the guards at the city gate keep a close eye on it, to prevent us from being caught off guard by the rebels..."
Prefect Tong was in a panic. No matter whether the God King existed or not, with 300,000 rebels coming to attack, Shiquan City would not be able to withstand it at all.
Shiquan City is a big horse-breeding city that provides horses to the Brahma City cavalry. It doesn't have any combat power at all.
Those men who raise and train horses are all tall and strong.
But no matter how strong they were, they could not resist 300,000 rebels.
He could only pray that Emperor Tianwu had sent troops to suppress the rebels.
The soldiers he sent out to deliver the letter 800 miles to the capital should have delivered it by now.
With such a big thing happening in Shiquan City, Emperor Tianwu will definitely not ignore it.
Tong Zhifu looked at the master who hurriedly left after receiving the order, and secretly encouraged himself...
.......
"Open the city gate, we want to get out..."
"Let us out. My mother can't bear it any longer. Please let me get some water..."
"Open the door, someone is going to die, please give us a way out..."
"Why are you closing the city gates? Are you trying to trap us to death? Ah-----"
"......"
The lawyer had just ordered the guards at the city gates to close the city gates when the common people, who had heard the news and came running with their families, began to jump in anxiety.
More and more people gathered around the city gate, and hoarse cries filled the air.
