Chapter 29 Crazy Beining City Lord
Wu Qing naturally understood the consequences of ringing the Beining Bell, but he still made such a choice.
Ever since he immediately ordered the gates of Beining City to be closed, people have been calling him to put pressure on him. Just after he rang the Beining Bell, countless frustrated so-called "nobles" gathered in the living room downstairs, waiting.
Take him down and give him an explanation.
An argument, a bullshit argument.
This group of borers had all the best resources in the north given to them, eating and using the country's money. When a war broke out, all they could think about was how to escape to a safer place.
When he heard that the teachers and students in Beining College fled the college in a hurry, his lungs almost exploded with anger.
Wu Qing was the city lord of Beining City, a branch of the Wu Kingdom's royal family, and a soldier who achieved high status with his military exploits. What he couldn't tolerate and hated the most was deserters.
The Kingdom of Wu was founded by force, and the name of the country was Wu. The ancestors of the Kingdom of Wu conquered thousands of miles of territory with just one sword, one shot, one punch and one kick. Who would have thought that their descendants would turn out to be such soft-hearted trash.
Shame on the ancestors.
Wu Qing stood in front of the window of the room, looking down coldly. In his field of vision, the city's practitioners were gathering in the square from all directions, like a group of pigs and sheep being driven away by whips.
Waste also has waste value.
...
Lu Chuan and Jiang Mo were among the crowd and followed everyone to gather at the square in the center of the city. The most common sentence they heard along the way was "The city lord is crazy."
In the eyes of most people, Wu Qing was indeed crazy.
He let the city guards control the city gates to prevent people from leaving the city, and rang the Beining bell to call everyone to the square. This offended almost all the nobles in Beining City, regardless of whether Wu Guo won this war.
If he loses, his end will be miserable.
After arriving at the square, Jiang Mo saw Senior Sister Yun, whom she had often talked about in her mouth, in the crowd. Senior Sister Yun's face no longer had the gentle smile of the past, but was replaced by anxiety and sullenness.
Yun Shiyao did have reason to be angry. She left the academy very early, but was still a step too late and was stopped at the city gate. The Guiyun Sect's token, which had always been able to run rampant in Wu Kingdom, also lost its effectiveness. The city guards
Not released.
There are many people like her in Beining City. Disciples of large sects, children of officials, descendants of wealthy gentry, and even people who are just passing through Beining City. They are all gathered in the square at this moment, venting their dissatisfaction with words.
Lu Chuan is also guessing the city lord's intention of ringing the Beining Bell. If the city lord wants everyone to go to the battlefield, there will probably be a huge backlash. The practitioners here obviously have no fighting will. Even if they force themselves to rush to the battlefield, they will probably only be held back.
.
He can think of things that the city lord cannot possibly not know, so what exactly does the city lord want to do?
"The bell in Beining rings. Anyone who has not arrived at the square in half an hour will be punished as treason. Li Feng, please take people to execute them."
Wu Qing's voice was not loud, but with the help of the amplification technique, everyone in the square could hear his cold orders, and the people who were cursing in the square instantly became quiet.
"Foreign enemies are present. I declare that Beining City will enter a wartime state from now on. All Wu Kingdom practitioners in the city, regardless of their cultivation level, will be temporarily incorporated into the city guard to assist in the defense of the northern border of Wu Kingdom."
Wu Qing's words caused an uproar in the crowd in the square. They entered a wartime state and were forcibly incorporated into the army. This kind of thing has only been seen in history books.
"Why? I'm not from Beining City, I'm from Kaiyang Sect..."
A man made an objection in the crowd. Before he could finish his words, a cold light came first, and then a spear directly penetrated his body and pinned him to the ground.
Then people saw Wu Qing appear in front of the man, holding the gun barrel and raising it slightly, and then kicked the man's body out.
The surrounding crowd dispersed in fear, and there was a commotion in the square.
"Find out the identity of this person and punish him with treason. After Zhao Ming found out, he sent a letter to Kaiyang Sect and the Imperial Capital, explaining today's rebellion. Please ask the Kaiyang Sect leader to come to the Imperial Capital and explain it to His Majesty in person. Kaiyang Sect monks
, or not a monk from the Kingdom of Wu."
The blood still dripping from the tip of Wu Qing's spear made everyone in the square understand his determination, and also made everyone more certain that Wu Qing had gone crazy.
He is personally cutting off his own future in the Wu Kingdom.
Lu Chuan was also stunned by the scene in front of him. Although he knew that this was to scare the monkeys, the Lord of the City was too cruel.
"I don't have time to tell you about the principles of loyalty to the country, nor will I send you to the battlefield to die. What you have to do is to assist the city guards, maintain order in the city, protect the materials sent to the front line, and concentrate on making talismans.
elixir, and clearing out the raiders from Jingguo across the border.
After this battle is over, your contributions will be counted as military merits. At that time, if you want to file a lawsuit against me in the imperial capital, or even kill me, that is up to you. But before the end of this war, I have only one request for you.
, obey military orders.”
After finishing speaking, Wu Qing walked back with the bloody gun. There was still a group of people in the city lord's palace who came to him to "ask for an explanation." Now he was going to ask them what explanation they wanted.
The city guards on the square quickly moved into action and took the rosters and began to form formations for the practitioners present. As long as the practitioners present did not want to be accused of treason, they could only bow their heads and accept it. As for how they cursed viciously in their hearts, they could not.
I can only hide it in my heart first.
Lu Chuan was also caught off guard by this sudden change. He and Jiang Mo would probably not be grouped together. If the military control was very strict, it would be difficult for the two of them to have a chance to communicate in the future.
Time was urgent, so he could only pull Jiang Mo aside first, take out half of the talisman elixirs from the storage ring, and four yuan stones and give them to Jiang Mo, telling her to give priority to protecting herself no matter what happens.
's little life.
The formation on the square continued. Not only Lu Chuan, but also many people discovered that there was a mystery in the formation process of the city guards.
Jiang Mo and Yun Shiyao, whom she was familiar with, were assigned to the logistics team, responsible for making talisman elixirs in the city. There were several female cultivators in the same team who seemed to be either rich or noble. Even the person who served as their team leader seemed
He was a college teacher whom Jiang Mo knew.
Lu Chuan himself was assigned to a guard group. The companions in the group he knew were Wu Ziyi and Lin Hai. The other little fat guy looked like he was a kid from a wealthy family. The people in the group were all second-generation Xiu, leading the city guard.
Jun is also a non-commissioned officer with good intentions.
It seems that the Wuqing city lord only looks crazy, but in fact he has a clear mind.
His combination of punches not only integrated the power of the monks in Beining City to relieve the pressure on the city guards, but also ensured the safety of important personnel through grouping. During the implementation process, these future flowers also experienced the baptism of war.
, after the war is over, everyone can still get a lot of military glory...
If done correctly, these flowers of the future will not wither too much, and if Wu Guo can win this war, I am afraid that some people who hate him to the core may even take the lead in asking for credit for him after the war is over.
Lu Chuan frowned and looked at the troubled teenagers in his group. Wu Ziyi, who was confused and excited because he thought he had a chance to participate in the war, had a conflict but smiled at him and nodded at Lin Hai, who looked familiar to everyone.
, and there was a little fat guy who nodded and bowed with a flattering smile, but he didn’t know where he came from.
