As soon as Zuo Da heard that Xuan Tianming had something for him to do, he quickly stood at attention, but he heard Xuan Tianming say to him: "Since you are the prefect of the city, you should be responsible for the city and all the people. I order you to save everyone in the city. "
Hearing this, Zuo Da cried, "I can't save them! Your Highness, Duanmu Anguo's evil thing, even this lowly one almost fell into his trap! This lowly one has heard of that thing, it's called Zombie Powder, as long as people eat it, they can't get rid of it, as long as they want to live, they must keep taking it. But even so, they can only live for a few years, this … … how can they be saved? "
"Hmph!" Xuan Tianming coldly snorted, no longer paying attention to Zuo Da. He also heard, this Zuo Da was a prefect who meddled in the affairs, he knew nothing about Duanmu Anguo's plan, he didn't even see Duanmu Anguo's face after he entered the secret room.
He cast his gaze into the distance. The people were still charging forward in a frenzy. Some of them had scattered and were howling as they rushed towards them. Soon, they were also in a mess. Zuo Da pulled his son and took the opportunity to blend into the crowd, quickly disappearing. Bai Ze anxiously asked Xuan Tianming: "Do you want to chase them back?"
Xuan Tianming waved his hand, "No need, useless people, let them be!" While speaking, his eyes continued to search the crowd, not long after, he found a small figure, he reached out and pointed forward, shouting: "Look! Isn't that your princess? "
Everyone looked over, only Bai Ze had seen Feng Yu Heng. He identified for a long time, nodding desperately: "Yes, it's the princess, it's the princess. Great, master, we finally met up with the princess. "
But, how could it be so easy to meet up? Xuan Tianming rushed into the crowd again. He saw that Feng Yu Heng had also seen him and was rushing towards him with all her might. However, he was still fine. After all, he was following the crowd. Feng Yu Heng, on the other hand, was going against the flow. After several attempts, not only did she fail to get the two of them closer, she was even pushed further away.
Xuan Tianming helplessly signaled to his subordinates. Everyone used their Qing Gong, using the shoulders and heads of the crazy commoners as support, and rushed forward in the air.
Feng Yu Heng was picked up by him from the crowd. When they held hands, the first thing she said was, "I've never seen so many lunatics! What are they doing? "
"Duan Mu An Guo has given everyone in the city medicine. Right now, these people have all gone crazy. They want to find Dashun's people for revenge." He explained simply and concisely: "The medicine is in the water. Remember, you cannot drink the water used to build the city."
She was shocked when she heard this. The entire city, no matter how it was built, there would be at least two to three hundred thousand people, right? Only that old thief Duan Mu could do such a crazy thing. She was a doctor. She could tell at a glance what kind of medicine these people had taken. The more it was like this, the more pained she felt because she could not treat it. This was not an illness. It was an addiction. It was an addiction to drugs.
"We need to reach the military camp before them. We need to let Seventh Brother make preparations." Xuan Tianming spoke while carrying Feng Yu Heng, using his Qing Gong to move forward. The madness of the people caused them to not be surprised by this action. They even hated themselves for not being able to fly. There were even many people who felt that they were flying. The people above them were also flying.
More than a dozen people walked all the way with Qing Gong, and finally shook off the crazy crowd by a distance. Wang Chuan took a deep breath and quietly asked Bai Ze: "None of our people have been infected with that kind of thing, right?"
Bai Ze shook his head: "Don't worry, we were very careful. No one touched it at all." After saying this, he licked his lips with his tongue, saying again: "They were so thirsty that they could not take it anymore. They were waiting for the Princess to come and save their lives. In the end, what awaited them was the collective madness of building the city."
"If we did not meet Prince Lian on the way, we would have arrived long ago." Wang Chuan shook his head helplessly and looked at Bai Ze's dry lips, saying: "When we reach the military camp, there will be water to drink."
At the same time, military reports came from where Xuan Tianhua had set up camp. The hundreds of thousands of people who had built the city rushed out, including the elderly and children. They all rushed towards their camp, vowing to fight to the death with the Dashun army.
Xuan Tianhua could not understand. He had heard that the Zong Sui people were very loyal to their country and were very against the Dashun army. There were even many households in the city that were prepared with iron essence weapons. Once war broke out, the entire population would be soldiers. But it was not to the extent that even the elderly and children would rush out of the city to enter the battlefield, right?
He thought about it and at the same time, crouched down on the ground, placing a hand flat on the ground and holding his breath. Very quickly, he felt a strange tremor coming from the ground. That tremor did not come in an orderly manner and was even very messy. But it was very fast. He estimated that in at most 30 minutes, there would be people rushing to the camp.
He asked the messenger: "Are you certain that the people rushing over are all citizens?"
The messenger soldier replied: "It is all the citizens of the city, excluding the infants who are still drinking milk, everyone. But it also includes the army that was originally stationed in the city from Zong Sui, the exact number is unknown. "
Qian Li could not help but shiver when he heard this, grinning as he said: "Are the people of Zong Sui so united? It is just fighting a war, is there a need for everyone to rush forward? If the citizens also go to the battlefield, what are the soldiers for? How are we going to fight this kind of war? "
He Gan said: "We will fight how we should fight! Since they have already entered the battlefield, it means that they have already given up on their identity as citizens. Since they have picked up weapons, they are no different from soldiers. So, we should not treat them as citizens, we should just treat them as enemy troops. Against enemy troops, we definitely cannot be soft-hearted. " After he finished speaking, he even turned the gun in his hand, then looked at Xuan Tianhua and asked: "Your Highness the Seventh Prince, why don't This Subordinate bring people to take a look first! After a wave of grenades explodes, the ones at the back will become obedient. We cannot really let them rush into our main camp. "
Qian Li also felt that what He Gan said made sense, so he nodded in agreement: "That's right, since they have entered the battlefield, they are no longer citizens. We will just fight with them."
However, Xuan Tianhua did not think so, he said: "Even if everyone is a soldier, there is no need for the elderly and children to rush over. This matter is not as simple as you think." He raised his head and looked in the direction of the tremors, and could already vaguely hear the sounds of people screaming. Qian Li and He Gan were both anxious, and kept asking him what they should do. He only said: "Ming is building a city, and Heng Heng went to meet up with him this morning. Now that something has happened, they will definitely take action. At the very least, they will come to tell us what happened."
He was right. Almost as soon as he finished speaking, someone in the main camp shouted: "His Ninth Highness and Royal Consort Yu are here!" Someone ran in front of him and asked if he should let His Ninth Highness in.
Xuan Tianhua's face darkened as he ordered: "Quickly invite them in."
Feng Yu Heng and Xuan Tianming directly used qinggong to rush over, along with a group of followers behind them. After meeting, they went straight to the point, informing Xuan Tianhua of what happened during the construction of the city. Then Feng Yu Heng suggested: "If it doesn't work, then retreat first, retreat to Bin City. Those people's medicine might not be strong enough to run all the way to Bin City. Let's go back first and close the city gates. At the very least, we can hold them off for a while. "
But Xuan Tian Xuan shook his head and said: "It is not that easy for the army to retreat. I'm afraid that those people will have already charged over when we break camp."
"Then we can only fight!" Feng Yu Heng said with a darkened face: "Use grenades to blast them, use guns to shoot them. It's just a few hundred thousand people. With me here, there is no need to worry about ammunition."
"Fight?" Xuan Tianhua could not bear it, "They are all normal citizens who were harmed by Duan Mu Anguo. If we fight, how is that different from massacring the entire city? A few hundred thousand people! After they die, who would know that they ate Duan Mu Anguo's medicine? Who would listen to Dashun's explanation? "As he spoke, he looked at Xuan Tianming and asked:" Ming, if it was you, what would you do? "
Xuan Tianming stared at him and said word by word: "Heng Heng said before, when morality and life are in conflict, the first thing we have to consider is always our own life. Hundreds of thousands of lunatics are coming over. They have no reason and do not feel pain. Even if you cut off their legs, they will crawl to you and stab you again. These hundreds of thousands of people are far more terrifying than hundreds of thousands of regular soldiers. If Seventh Brother is kind to the enemy, he is being cruel to himself. "
Just as they were speaking, there were already people who ran quickly to the camp and clashed with the soldiers. These people were all normal citizens. When they fought, they did not follow the rules at all. Not only did they hack and slash randomly, there were even children who climbed onto Dashun's soldiers and opened their mouths to bite the soldiers' ears.
Dashun's soldiers were very passive. Facing men in their prime, it was still fine. They could resist and fight back. But when they faced children, elderly people and women, the long swords in their hands could not fall. But even if they could not do it, the other party was not careless at all. The women reached out with their long nails to scratch the soldiers' faces. The elderly pounced on the soldiers and tried to strangle their necks. A little girl who was no more than four or five years old was wrapped around a soldier. Her bloody mouth held half of the soldier's ear that had been bitten off.
Qian Li subconsciously took a step back and cried out: "They really are lunatics. They really are lunatics!"
Xuan Tianming pointed at the scene in front of him and said: "Seventh Brother, do you see this? These people, can they still be considered humans? "
Xuan Tianhua looked over with a sorrowful expression, he said: "But this is not their original appearance. If you want me to go and slaughter these hundreds of thousands of citizens, I cannot do it. Ming, go back and bring Heng Heng back to Fuzhou. Do not take another step into Zong Sui's territory. Qian Li, gather the troops and retreat to Bin City. Close the city gates. As long as the city is not peaceful, Bin City's gates must not be opened. "
"Then what about you?" Everyone was asking him this question. If the army left and Qian Li brought them away, then what was the Seventh Prince going to do?
Feng Yu Heng grabbed Xuan Tianhua's sleeve and said anxiously: "Seventh Brother, don't think about making us leave. You can stay here alone! You cannot solve this matter alone! If you want to leave, we will leave together. If you want to stay, we will stay together! "
Xuan Tianhua shook his head and pointed forward, "Look, the camp is getting more and more lively."
