Chapter 1178 Tongcheng
Tongcheng had already sealed the city. On the day the city was built and the city was massacred, 100,000 personal soldiers from Duanmu Anguo arrived one after another, and with a mysterious thing, they began to step up deployment around the city.
No one knew what those things were. He only saw the personal soldiers digging the ground like plowing fields, then buried the things in, and then closed the city gate. No one in the city was allowed to leave. There was also a checkpoint five miles outside the city, and no one could get closer.
At that time, the news that Jiancheng was slaughtered had not reached Tongcheng, and the news that there was something wrong with Jiancheng Jingshui had not reached Tongcheng. People only knew that Zong Sui and Dashun had started the war. The city was closed to ensure their safety, so there was no accident or too much resistance. Although life became less convenient, life was more important than suffering from the troubles of war.
But it took only a few days, but for some reason, even though the city gate was closed, the news from the other end of the city still came to Tongcheng without any hesitation.
This caused a sensation in Tongcheng. For a moment, the horror of the city massacre spread throughout Ertongcheng and became a topic that people must talk about. Soon, the popularity of the city massacre had not dissipated, and the news of Duanmu Anguo's scattered zombies in the well water also dissipated, which caused another wave of panic in the horror.
The people dare not drink water from the well, but they cannot die of thirst. Many people think of the big river outside the city. The big river flowing from south to north is wide and deep, and the river water is extremely clear. People in Tongcheng will always go to the river to enjoy water in summer. The water can be scooped up and drink it, which is sweet like a mountain spring.
The river water is living water. A doctor from a clinic told everyone that the flowing living water will not contain any poison. Even if it is poisoned, it doesn’t matter. It will soon dissipate with the flow and lose its toxicity. So people want to go to the river outside the city to pick up water to drink. Some wealthy families directly trapped cars, putting many large wooden barrels on the car, preparing to transport water sources into the mansion one by one.
However, when Tongcheng was closed, no one could get out. The 100,000 personal soldiers of Duanmu Anguo personally guarded them, and all the guards of Tongcheng were wiped out. The people could not get out of the city, and they were so angry that they cursed Duanmu Anguo, but the personal soldiers were like they didn't hear it, and they just kept the city gate and refused to open.
The people had no choice but to gather at the gate of the prefectural palace to beat drums and ask for help.
In recent days, the prefect Tian Ping has also been worried about the water source and has personally negotiated with the personal soldiers of Duanmu Anguo several times, but unfortunately they all returned in vain. Now that the people are angry and surrounded the prefect, Tian Ping had no choice but to face the personal soldiers again.
This time, Tian Ping was also angry. Because the people in the prefectural prefecture did not dare to drink the water from the well. After all, when they thought that the zombies were terrible, it was even more toxic medicine that made people feel cold all over their bodies. Even though the personal soldiers guaranteed that there was no problem with the well water in Tongcheng, people were still worried.
Tian Ping pointed to the deputy general in charge and shouted angrily: "Since the well water is fine, then you soldiers will go and try the water first. You have to drink every well in this city. Only when you drink it is fine, the people of Tongcheng dare to drink it!" He was so angry that his hands were trembling, and he couldn't help but say a few more words: "The 300,000 people in Jiancheng! They were all harmed by you! There were also the 200,000 troops, and none of them could escape Duanmu Anguo's poisonous hands. Why are your hearts so cruel? Since the whole nation is to be soldiers, why don't your people drink it? Why only the people of Zong Sui drink it?"
The deputy general snorted coldly and looked at Tian Ping and said, "The magistrate is asking us, and we should ask our general. It is useless to ask General Mo. But then again, you are just hearing-making. The people in Jiancheng were massacred by Dashun. What's the matter with us? Who can prove that we Lord gave medicine in advance?" Humph! The entire Jiancheng is no longer a person, and the bodies were burned by Xuan Tianming, and there is no evidence to die.
Tian Ping stared at the general fiercely, but he was speechless. Indeed, the news was heard and they couldn't tell who the person who first came out of the wind. In short, this incident spread throughout the city overnight. Now that I think about it carefully, it seems that someone was doing it on purpose.
But no matter what, the news has been known to everyone. In order to calm the public panic and not cause greater riots, Tian Ping knew that he had to force these personal soldiers to try the waters to ensure that, otherwise Tongcheng would be in peace.
The personal soldiers had no choice. Tian Ping was a local official after all, and with so many people speaking out together, they were unwilling to cause trouble before Duanmu Anguo arrived. The water on the left and right sides were fine, so they took the army and took a few sips of the well water one by one. Seeing that they all dared to drink, it was fine if they drank, so they stopped quarreling about leaving the city and continued to drink the water source in the city.
Duanmu Anguo arrived in Tongcheng a few days later. The people scoffed at this, not only was he as beautiful as he had when he came to build the city. Not only did no one warmly welcome him, but some even pointed at him and cursed him. But Duanmu Anguo didn't care. He just wanted to use this Tongcheng to complete his plan to fight against Xuan Tianming and Feng Yuheng. He didn't care at all that these people thought. Once he won this battle, these people could all become burials with the destruction of Dashun. He would never let this Tongcheng exist intact.
This time, Duanmu Anguo did not live in the prefecture, but chose another house. The house was originally a place where his subordinates were hidden in Tongcheng. It was not only the courtyard that was three in and three out, but also countless authentic dark pavilions inside. Duanmu Anguo lived in it very safe. Not only outsiders could not find it. Even if they were their own people, they had no idea which secret pavilion or tunnel they were in before they received a definite answer.
Just as Zuo Da Jiancheng said, he was like a mouse, guarding Feng Yuheng to a perverted state, and even leaving at least ten secret guards to protect themselves when they were sleeping, otherwise they would be uneasy.
In fact, Duanmu Anguo himself didn't understand why he was so afraid. Even if Feng Yuheng had some skills, he would have better light skills at most. But even so good that people say they were elusive, they could not break into the wall, right? Why was he so afraid that he would lock himself in a basement without even a window? In response to this, he asked himself many times and advised him many times, but he just couldn't convince himself to live in a house on the ground.
Tian Ping was summoned the day after Duanmu Guoan entered the city. He stood in front of Duanmu Anguo, without much energy, and was not as flattering as Zuo Da, and did not even have a slight humility. He just said to Duanmu Anguo: "I will not participate in the war. There are 100,000 troops in Tongcheng. According to the emperor's order, all of them will be obeyed by your order. But please do not harm the people of Tongcheng. Otherwise, even if I fight my life, I will not fight against the people of the whole city! "
Duanmu Anguo laughed loudly after hearing this. In his opinion, Tian Ping was just a little magistrate, and he dared to say such a big talk. He didn't take such a small official seriously at all, and only told Tian Ping: "This general will convey the words of Tian Zhuzhou to the emperor intact."
"It's up to you." Tian Ping waved his hand and snorted coldly, "Your grudge cannot be resolved in Dashun, so I brought it to Zong Sui. You, a Dashun person, have brought such a disaster to Zong Sui. If the emperor does not wake up, then I am a disaster minister. If he wants to demote him, he will be demoted and kill him. However, Duanmu Anguo, I must remind you that Zong Sui is not just for you. Even if you have ambitions, it is unreasonable to bring the people of Zong Sui to realize it for you. Bincheng is confused and building the city is confused. I am not confused at all. After Tongcheng, not every city can be at your mercy. Duanmu Anguo, you know it yourself."
After Tian Ping finished speaking, he turned around and left, but after walking a few times, he walked around and walked back. This tunnel was complicated and he failed to get around based on the memory he had when he came in.
Duanmu Anguo laughed after seeing it, pointing at Tian Ping and said, "I can't even get out of my territory, but I dare to speak loudly. Tian Zhizhou, you should be the one who knows it yourself. Only by working with this general can you keep the safety of the people of Tongcheng. Otherwise..."
"Otherwise, will we be given that kind of medicine? Do you believe it or not? Even if the people of Tongcheng really take that kind of medicine, our finger will be directed at you, not Dashun. The people of Tongcheng are very clear and clear, and we know who is the source of the disaster."
Duanmu Anguo really didn't expect that the Zong Sui Dynasty had such a strong magistrate. Tian Ping let him see a different local official, different from Bincheng and Jiancheng, and even from the officials of Dashun. He didn't like such officials, but now is not the time to get rid of Tian Ping. He did not kill the officials of Zong Sui. Even if he wanted Tian Ping to die, he would have to use the help of Dashun people. Fortunately, the day was not far away. He smiled sinisterly. As long as Xuan Tianming's army attacked, he would be at least 80% sure that he could leave the other party. As long as Dashun lost Xuan Tianming and Feng Yuheng and seriously injured Xuan Tianhua, he would not believe that anyone else could be his opponent of Duanmu Anguo.
Out of the "rat" hole in Duanmu Anguo, Tian Ping returned to the prefectural prefecture. As soon as he entered the mansion, he saw the butler scolding a little girl. The little girl knelt on the ground and wiped her tears and said, "Butler Lin, it's all my fault. I didn't take good care of the lady. But the butler, don't drive me away. I also want to serve the lady. There must be no caring person around her!"
The housekeeper was so angry that he stamped his feet: "I know you have a deep affection with the lady, but it is because of this that I have to teach you. The lady trusts you the most. If you can't even take good care of her, who else can do his best? Tongcheng has been in a mess recently. The master is busy with official duties all day long. We servants must serve the master more carefully to make the master worry!" After he said that, he helped the girl up again, "Okay, I just scared you. The lady loves you so much. How can I say I'll drive you away and drive you away? Go and do things! The doctor comes later and asks him to see it carefully, don't fall wherever he falls."
Tian Ping's heart tightened and asked loudly: "Have you fallen again?"
