The Era of Generals

Chapter 728 School Field

Two hours later.

Now in Dongping City, what Chen Ze said was not much different from the imperial decree.

Whether they are willing or unwilling, after receiving the order, no one dares to neglect, and they are all cleaning themselves up at an extremely fast speed.

In fact, there is nothing to clean up.

Just talk about Huang Liang's subordinates, those bandits.

They are the group with the largest number of people, with a total of more than 50,000 people, but they are also the group that most urgently wants to leave Dongping City.

As for the reason, it is very simple.

That's embarrassing...

Before, Huang Liang informed everyone to prepare to evacuate Dongping City the next day.

At that time, all the bandits were crazy, they desperately robbed property in Dongping City, if Chen Ze hadn't ordered Huang Liang to order them not to kill anyone in time, I'm afraid Dongping City would already be bleeding like a river up.

However, who knew this order would become so fast.

Just when the bandits robbed a lot of money and were ready to leave Dongping City, another order made them dumbfounded.

The matter of leaving Dongping City... is suspended!

This...is embarrassing.

The madness at that time, it was in the middle of the night, and it happened suddenly, so they were able to succeed.

But after all, there were only more than 20,000 people who participated in the robbery at that time, and the other 30,000 people were guarding the barracks and did not participate.

According to the usual habits of the bandits, they would run away after the robbery and the crime were done. No one would just stay where they were and wait for others to gather good people and come to them for revenge.

There are at least one hundred thousand civilians in Dongping City!

Once the other party gathers their hands together, they can drown them with a single spit.

What's more, there are another 30,000 people who did not participate in the robbery.

Why are they unwilling?

Such a good thing didn't come his turn. From that night onwards, Huang Liang's camp had already been divided into two groups.

Those who didn't get the property desperately wanted a piece of the action, but those who got the property did everything possible to keep the fruits of their victory. It was inevitable to be wary of each other's suspicions, and even a conflict broke out.

Fortunately, after that, Chen Ze asked Meng Yang to train these people strictly, and locked everyone in the school field. They practiced until they couldn't stand firmly, and they lost their strength, so naturally the conflict didn't break out again.

Then the party who grabbed the property also thought that they could not keep guarding for a long time. Based on the idea that one point is worth one point, they finally chose to divide the stolen property equally among the other half.

In this way, the internal troubles are barely subsided, but the external troubles are still there.

There are not a few civilians who have been robbed in Dongping City. One can imagine the resentment towards these bandits.

If you stay in Dongping City for one more day, you will have an extra risk of being punished by others. Naturally, you will not be afraid of bandits who gather together, but who can guarantee that you will not be alone?

So during this period of time, the most worrying and fearful people are these bandits.

Chen Ze's order is such a great thing for them.

They didn't want to stay in Dongping City for a long time, if they could go one step earlier, they would go one step earlier!

All the bandits packed up their luggage a long time ago. When Meng Yang asked them to go back to the camp to clean up, it took less than half an hour, but the bandits with the largest number were the first to pack up. Everything, ran to the school grounds to assemble.

The good thing is that Dongping City has suffered from continuous wars. It sounds bluffing to rob the whole city, but in fact, the property they can rob is not too much.

Therefore, when Chen Ze looked down from the school grounds, those bandits were all beaming, and each carried a package on their backs, but the package was not too big, and it would not affect the speed when marching.

Chen Ze ignored them and was still waiting on the school grounds.

After staying for two hours, other soldiers also rushed to the school field one after another. Since then, more than 60,000 people crowded the field.

"Master Chen, are we leaving now?"

Huang Liang and Zhang Li also hurried over at this moment, and cupped their hands at Chen Ze who was on the stage.

These two people also have big bags and small bags, which are even more exaggerated than those bandit soldiers in the school field.

Chen Ze sighed, knowing that the upper beam was not straight and the lower beam was crooked.

Everyone who is in charge of their own family can do this, so how can they expect the people below not to rob, not to rob?

Although Huang Liang didn't try to snatch it himself, the amount of tribute paid to him by his subordinates was more than anyone else present.

And when the three of He Leng left, Huang Liangxu knew very well that Chen Ze would not do anything to him now, so he stopped trying to hide anything, and just ran to the school grounds with his gold and silver treasures on his back up.

Chen Ze frowned slightly, but he didn't say much, he just waved his hands and asked the two to stand aside.

With the arrival of Huang Liang and others, the school field is basically full at this moment.

Chen Ze glanced down the stage with his hands behind his back.

After a while, he spoke slowly: "Not long ago, the general's scout sent back a message that he found a trace of an army."

As he said that, he paused, glanced at Huang Liang, and then said: "It's a coincidence that that army is involved with most of the people present."

"General Huang."

"The subordinates are here!"

Huang Liang was taken aback for a moment, but he didn't expect Chen Ze to turn the topic on him, so he hurriedly surrendered his hands.

"Remember what happened on the border when you attacked Dongping City?"

Chen Ze asked.

These words made Huang Liang startled for a moment, and suddenly he gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "Of course I remember, those bastards actually took advantage of their subordinates attacking Dongping City..."

The words stopped suddenly at this point, and Huang Liang felt a chill running down his back.

Only then did he remember that besides his own brothers, there were five thousand soldiers who had surrendered to him on the school field at this moment, and these people hated him to the bone.

At this moment, he was talking about the attack on Dongping City in the school grounds, which obviously aroused the hatred of these former captives.

"Ahem!"

Thinking of this, Huang Liang coughed in embarrassment, not because he was afraid of those captives, but, although Chen Ze needed him, he needed Chen Ze to restore his identity even more. If such hatred prevents him from fulfilling his wish, then the gain outweighs the loss.

"Yes, it is them."

Chen Ze also knew his concerns, and he also didn't want to cause other troubles in the army, so he immediately took up the conversation: "Some people here may not know that when Dongping City fell..."

"The other three cities belonging to the four border cities have been... slaughtered by a group of rogues!"

As soon as this remark came out, a huge commotion erupted in the school grounds.

"Slaughter... the city?"

"The city was massacred?"

"The three cities are all... gone?"
