Chapter 201 Soldiers and civilians return to Bazhou (Subscription required)
Exquisite silk cloths engraved with gold letters were hung on houses, mansions, and tents.
The north wind was blowing, making a rustling sound.
The first thing that many people who poured in from the city gate had to do was to read the words of praise chosen by the six generals on the huge golden silk cloth hanging at the gate before they could enter the city.
The people who came in were all convinced, and they brought their families, young and old, and shouted out the contents of the huge golden words.
Many of the people who had fled back were filthy, skinny, and their clothes were all mud-colored. They shouted and shouted with great excitement. They prostrated themselves on the ground, kowtowed to the golden sail, and praised loudly with tears in their eyes.
They were all refugees from Bazhou. When the imperial court invaded, the Tianxing Army was unable to resist, and even the new king did not appear. Many people lost confidence and wanted to flee to other states.
However, in this chaotic world, where can they find a safe place to live?
Before they could escape far, they were robbed by bandits and all the food they had was taken away.
If he had not handed over all his property and put up no resistance, he would probably have died.
Dragging his family, he became homeless and slept in the wilderness.
I almost died of cold and starvation.
Hear rumors outside.
Rumor has it that the Tianxing Army sent down gods and summoned huge meteors to kill millions of armored troops and tens of millions of officers and soldiers of the imperial court.
In the moment of life and death struggle, even though he did not believe the exaggerated rumors in his heart, he still returned to his homeland as if he had grasped the last straw.
When we got here, the first thing we saw was the huge mound of earth a few miles outside the city gate, and the mountains of blood-stained armor and weapons of officers and soldiers, as well as the armor of the Iron Army, piled up next to it.
They had no choice but to believe it.
There really are gods descending to earth!
It’s true, the new king of Tianxing Army saved them!
Outside the city wall, it was already crowded with people.
There were soldiers distributing food outside and asking them to wipe off the dirt on their bodies, otherwise they would not be allowed to enter the city to avoid offending the new king.
They ate and drank outside for a few days, and rubbed their muddy clothes vigorously for several days, before they reluctantly got the consent of the gatekeeper to let them into the city.
At this moment, I returned to my hometown and knew that my family would no longer have to wander around, and that I could support myself and my family with my own hands under the protection of the King of Road. I was already in tears.
Amid the shouts of the soldiers and the urging of the people behind them who were about to enter the city, they climbed up and, with their elders and children, rushed towards the direction of the King's Palace.
Bazhou Prefecture at this time.
Teams of Tianxing Army soldiers patrolled the streets.
The closer the street is to the Overlord's Palace, the denser the crowds become.
There were guardrails set up all around the Overlord's Palace, and outside the guardrails, there were crowds of people.
At the guardrail, the soldiers interrogated and questioned these newcomers.
He also helped people pat the dirty parts of their bodies clean and wiped their faces with rags until they were shiny before allowing them to cross the guardrails and enter the Overlord's Palace.
At this time, the area around the Overlord's Palace was densely packed with hundreds of thousands of people.
There were men, women, old and young, all holding each other's shoulders, raising their heads and looking towards the Overlord's Palace.
I want to catch a glimpse of the gods.
At this time, tens of thousands of Tianxing Army soldiers gathered in the Overlord's Palace.
After the imperial court was defeated, many of the scattered soldiers returned to Bazhou Prefecture. Today, these soldiers who had participated in the war were allowed to enter the Bawang Palace to congratulate King Lu.
These pawns looked in the direction of Overlord's Store with inexplicable excitement, and looked at the high platform built in front of the entrance of Overlord's Palace.
They were defeated by the armored troops and the imperial soldiers, and they realized how powerful the armored troops were.
Now, we have heard that the armored army and the imperial officers and soldiers have all been defeated!
And he was defeated by one person!!
One man killed tens of thousands of imperial officers and soldiers! Tens of thousands of armored soldiers! !
This miracle that only appeared in the storybooks was actually obtained by the Tianxing Army! ! Many people were excited and a little suspicious.
The court’s defeat is an indisputable fact.
Given the military strength of Bazhou Prefecture at that time, it did not have such combat capability.
There must be some variables.
But one man killed ten thousand soldiers! This unbelievable thing still made many people doubt whether it was exaggerated.
They all came to the Overlord Palace with surprise and doubt, wanting to see whether the new king of the Tianxing Army, who had not appeared in the previous battles, was exactly like the rumors.
There was a crowd of people inside and outside the Overlord's Palace.
Everyone was standing, and there was no stool or table provided for them.
They started gathering here before dawn in the early morning, and some even started last night.
Now, at this time, people are crowded together.
They are all waiting to see the face of the God.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the entrance of Overlord Palace.
Even though they were at the outer wall of the Overlord's Palace and could not see what was happening inside the Overlord's Palace, they still put their ears close to the ground, trying to hear the voice of the gods.
Inside the Overlord's Palace, Lu Yuan was sitting on the widened throne with his bare chest.
In front of it was a large table made up of two long tables combined, which was filled with all kinds of fruits, vegetables, and meats.
The ten military commanders stood by and served on the side.
Lu Yuan grabbed a roasted suckling pig on the table and stuffed it into his mouth.
With two rows of large teeth flashing with cold light, he chewed the whole roasted suckling pig into pieces with great ease and swallowed it into his stomach with a "gulp".
The plates were put aside, and the four generals, Sun, Xu, Mo, and Chen, vied with each other to put the leftover plates into the wooden barrel.
When the wooden barrel was half full of empty plates, the four of them scrambled to replace the wooden barrel with an empty one.
At this time, the six military commanders, Zhou An, Meng Yan, Song Wen, Xu Changqing, Zhou Qing, and Ma Zongwei, kept passing in plates of meat and vegetables from outside and served them on the table.
After Lu Yuan finished eating the roast suckling pig, he poured plates of cut apples, peeled grapes, and shaved sugarcane into his mouth like beans.
Only after he had finished eating all the fruits on the table did he lie back in the chair with satisfaction, with his legs dangling on the long table in front of him, squinting his eyes and looking like a salted fish.
The six generals stopped serving food, and the four generals, Sun, Xu, Mo, and Chen, did not dare to remove the plates, which alarmed the king.
They all stood aside, and the only sound in the Overlord's Palace was the sound of Lu Yuan licking his teeth.
After Lu Yuan had his fill, he listened to the various noises outside and remembered that today was the day for the great victory of the Tianxing Army.
After the celebration, the Tianxing Army will take advantage of the court's defeat and attack Qianzhou.
Li Qi hopes that he can come forward and boost the morale of the people in the area under his jurisdiction.
Lu Yuan raised his head, glanced at Li Qi who was standing next to him and had not urged him, and then put his feet under the long table.
The huge body stood up:
"Go out."
Then he walked towards the entrance of Overlord's Palace.
Li Qi and the ten generals hurriedly followed behind Lu Yuan.
