The Era of Generals

Chapter 735   Bloody Man

"General!"

"General, it's very good of you to come!"

At this moment, outside the north gate of Dongning City, a group of civilians rushed towards a troop with a positive face and joy.

Tang Tianxing and his son hid among the civilians and also looked at the army.

As far as the eye can see, the banners and even their military equipment belonged to the Zhu Yan Empire.

The two exchanged glances, and saw that one of the civilians who fled out of the city directly called out the surname of the leading vanguard general, and they were sure in their hearts that this army should belong to the Zhuyan Empire, not the Bailie Empire's army pretending to be an army. , or the disguise of bandits.

"People in front, stop!"

Just as the civilians hadn't touched the troops, the leading general suddenly yelled, and then waved his hand.

The sword and shield players at the front of the line immediately shouted in unison, and slammed the shields in their hands upside down on the ground, building an iron wall between their side and the civilians running in a panic.

"General Yao, we are the people of Dongning City!"

Seeing this, the civilians turned pale with fright, and hurriedly cried and shouted at the general surnamed Yao.

"snort!"

The general surnamed Yao snorted heavily, and shouted: "You say so?"

"Dongning City was destroyed half a month ago, you people, what are you still running around outside this city?"

"The general doesn't know anything!"

Among the civilians there were many courageous ones, they rushed out more and more, bowed their heads to General Yao, and then cried: "A few days ago, my Dongning City was attacked by bandits, and many people in the city fled into exile."

"But then those bandits left after robbing money and food, and we homeless had no choice but to go back to Dongning City again."

The commoner paused for a moment, then beat his feet and chest, and said, "But not long after we went back, another group of robbers came and are now entrenched in Dongning City. In desperation, the big guys had to fly again. Get out of town!"

"Fortunately, the general is here, and I ask the general to save the people from the fire and water, and drive away those nasty bandits!"

General Yao didn't react much to this statement, but a group of civilians beside him were weeping.

Among them, some relatives died when the first wave of bandits attacked the city, and some were robbed completely, penniless and almost starved to death.

To them, this incident was a nightmare scene, and recalling it now, it was extremely painful.

"You said there are bandits coming again?"

General Yao didn't close his eyes until he finished speaking, and looked over the crowd to the peaceful Dongning City.

"Exactly!"

The commoner hurriedly said: "General Yao once stayed in Dongning City before, and the villain also opened a restaurant in Dongning City before. I was lucky enough to meet the general, so I recognize the general!"

He tried his best to prove his identity, for fear that General Yao would also kill him as one of the bandits.

"You...you look familiar."

General Yao stared at him carefully, nodded slightly, and said, "Then how many bandits have entered Dongning City at this moment?"

"this……"

As soon as this remark came out, the civilians looked at each other in blank dismay.

Who knows how many?

When they heard that there were bandits coming just now, they were too scared to run away, so how could they turn around and count how many people there were?

Among the many civilians present, no one could answer General Yao's question.

"snort!"

Seeing this, General Yao glared coldly and shouted, "You cowards!"

"Our Fengqi province has been bullied!"

"Do you know why?"

"It's not just that you are easy to bully!"

"If you can't even defend your own home, what else can the empire expect from you?"

A series of angry shouts made the group of civilians obedient and dared not say a word.

Although he was upset in his heart, thinking that this should be a matter for the army, General Yao said something right.

Dongning City is their home.

Their home was invaded, and their immediate reaction was to turn around and run away, not even having the courage to take a look.

"The general heard that..."

General Yao glanced at the crowd and said coldly: "The last time you attacked Dongning City, there were only more than 30,000 people."

"And how many of you are there?"

"Um?"

"The entire Dongning City has a permanent population of more than half a million!"

"More than 500,000 people were massacred by 30,000 others?"

"you!"

"You guys still have the nerve to cry in front of this general?"

"If I were you, I would have gone to buy a piece of tofu earlier and killed me!"

This General Yao has a fiery temper, and with that momentum, he really pointed at everyone's nose and yelled and scolded them one by one, without showing any sympathy.

The civilians in Dongning couldn't hold their heads up even more after being scolded by him.

That's right, the original Dongning City had more than half a million people.

But they also know why.

The entire Fengqi Province was in the flames of war, and Ouyang Lixing, who was regarded as the God of War in Fengqi, was also said to be trapped in Nantes Province and could not return.

The urgency of the situation can be seen by anyone with a little brain.

Therefore, in order to protect oneself wisely, before the rogues came, many capable people in the city had already dragged their families and ran away, while those who stayed in the city were mostly old, weak, sick and disabled.

And when the bandits came, it was late at night, and the whole city was crying and screaming. Under such circumstances, how could these unarmed civilians have any room to resist?

As for the escape this time, it was already frightened.

It is said that once bitten by a snake and afraid of well ropes for ten years, when they hear that bandits and robbers are coming again, they have no desire to resist, so naturally they can only run away.

But knowing that Gui knows, who would dare to go and explain to General Yao at such a time?

General Yao yelled and cursed for a while, but he couldn't get any response. He couldn't help being discouraged for a while, and said in a dispirited way: "Since you are not willing to fight side by side with this general, then it's up to you."

"Get out of the way, find a place to hide, and come back when General Ben regains Dongning City!"

As he said that, he waved his hand, but he also pointed out the escape route to the civilians.

Tang Tianxing and Tang Feng were mixed in the crowd. Seeing General Yao's words and deeds, the two couldn't help but glance at each other, and they both nodded.

Although this person has a hot temper, he is only thinking about the empire.

He was angry with him, and after angrily scolding those civilians, he still pointed out a way out for them instead of forcing them to return and attack the so-called bandits in Dongning City together.

From this point alone, Tang Tianxing's approval has been obtained.

And at this moment, when Tang Tianxing was about to go out and explain to General Yao that the people in the city at this time were not bandits, he suddenly turned his head and glanced back.

It was Guo Zi who swung his whip quickly and rushed over.
