The queen must start from the head

Chapter 176 Breaking the Order
The Great Qin Kingdom, which had almost swept the northern continent before, assembled an army of one million at an astonishing speed.

The Great Qin Lord personally sits in this army, the crown prince supervises the country, General Feng Guangda acts as the vanguard, and many famous generals of the Great Qin lead the battalions.The entire Great Qin Kingdom is preparing for the expedition of this army.

According to the traveling speed of this team, they will be able to reach the territory of Northern Qi in October.

At the same time, Song and Zhao, which had been destroyed on the left and right wings of the Northern Qi Dynasty, also had a small group of Qin soldiers stationed there.

These people began to constantly test and harass the borders on the left and right sides of Northern Qi.

Not only that, the monster races that had retreated before reappeared in the border area of ​​Northern Qi, most of them were tiger monsters and wolf monsters.

These monsters like to bite people, are cruel and violent, and ordinary soldiers are unable to resist.

Battle reports came frequently, and the Northern Qi monarch had no choice but to order the border to shrink.

He ordered a large number of soldiers to continuously retreat inland and enter cities in various places, and used the power of the cities to disperse the opposing enemy forces.

Iron Stone City, which used to be adjacent to Tianhai City, has now become a battlefield.

The soldiers and horses of the Great Qin State launched an attack on the city from the east.

The lord of Iron Stone City had already ordered people to dig a ditch around the city gate to protect the city.

There are a large number of cut bamboos and broken wood and broken swords at the bottom of the ditch. Once the enemy soldiers and horses approach, the ditch can play a role in blocking the enemy.

However, the coach of Da Qin was not stupid enough to use his own soldiers to fill the hole.

They escorted the [-] to [-] Northern Qi people who had raided along the way to the front of the battle, and asked these people to fill the ditch with their lives.

These common people are all in ragged clothes, with bloodstains all over their bodies, and their faces are covered with dirt.

When dealing with the people of the Northern Qi Dynasty, the allocation of the Qin army was very clear.

The young and strong are used as coolies, and the women are used as camp prostitutes. The old people use it to explore roads and fill enemy pits, and the children keep them as spare food.

The soldiers of the Northern Qi Dynasty standing on the top of the iron-wood city wall looked at the dull-eyed and dumb-faced people of their own family below, who were forced into the ravine one by one by the spears and bows and arrows behind them to die. dripping blood.

The city lord went into battle early, standing on the top of the wall, holding a blood-stained sword in his hand.

Seeing that the gully below was about to be filled with human life, he waved his big knife with red eyes and shouted, "What are you guys doing standing there? Where are your arrows? I've spotted them all!"

"City Lord! There are no more arrows!"

"If you don't have arrows, pour poisonous juice! Hit the stone! No matter what method you use, as long as it climbs up, I will smash it down!"

The soldiers on the city wall all had red eyes, desperately killing the enemy.

A veteran, after shooting an arrow, was about to pick up a stone beside him and smash it down.

However, on the increasingly tired and higher ravine below the city wall, a face he was all too familiar with suddenly appeared.

Wrinkled old face, gray hair, half-blind left eye, this, this is not his old lady, who else could it be? !
That's right, his old mother lived in a village outside the city. Qin Jun and his group of beasts looked like locusts wherever they went, destroying everything completely!

Originally, he dreamed last night that his old lady hid in the rice vat and escaped a catastrophe, but he didn't expect to see her old man appearing on the corpse pile in the gully of the battlefield today.

"Mother, mother! It's my son, mother! Look up at me!"

The veteran's familiar shout made the old woman, who was blind in one eye, slowly raise her thin face.

The moment the two looked at each other, tears overflowed from each other's eyes.

"My son, is that you? Is it my son?!"

At this time, the city lord found the veteran who had been holding up the stone, and immediately scolded him to throw the stone down immediately.

Below, the Qin State soldier climbing up the ladder was less than one meter away from him, and his old mother was at the foot of that Qin State soldier.

what to do?Should the stone be thrown or not?

What should I do if I hit my mother?
The veteran's heart fell into an extremely painful struggle.

However, he didn't realize that his hand, which had been holding the stone for a long time, had begun to lose strength.

Just when the Qin soldiers below were about to climb up to him, the stone in his hand suddenly let go.

The big stone hit Qin Bing's head all at once, and blood and brains splashed out at the same time, splashing him all over the face.

Before the old soldier reached out to touch his face, the next Qin Bing who climbed up followed him and cut off the old soldier's head.

The head jumped over the city wall, rolled straight down, and landed in the hands of the half-blind old woman.

The old woman, who was over sixty years old, held her son's head in her trembling hands, opened her thin and dry mouth, and let out a sobbing sound, as sad as an old beast wailing for the last time.

But no one heard her whine.

Amidst the screams soaring into the sky and the clash of weapons, her voice was so weak, so insignificant.

The Great Qin general who was directing the Qin soldiers to attack the city gate was still shouting, "I will kill you all! As long as you enter Iron Stone City today, there will be gold, silver, wealth, beauties and beauties inside!"

On the city wall, the city lord of Tieshi City, who had been charging at the forefront, was already exhausted.

However, he was still waving the knife in his hand, and he knew that he could not fall down yet.

-

As the days passed, the situation became more and more critical.

At this time, if someone looked down from a high altitude, they would find that Daqin soldiers were encircling Northern Qi from all directions.

Now that the strength of the Northern Qi Dynasty was forced to shrink, it was like a small boat floating on a leaf of the sea, waiting for a huge wave to hit it, and it would be overturned in an instant.

In the imperial city, the monarch Li Tianming had already started to sleep all night, and he even started to lose a lot of hair.

After many days passed, there was no movement from the Wushuang faction.

From the people he sent to monitor, until now there has been no news that Sect Master Mu led his disciples to fight against the enemy.

At critical moments, women are still unreliable.

Li Tianming thought about it and decided to repeat his old tricks and force Mu Lian and his disciples to show up.

He sent people to spread the news in the well of the imperial city, saying that Mu Sheng was greedy for life and afraid of death, timid and selfish, and disregarded righteousness.

Now that the enemy of the Northern Qi State is facing the enemy, the Northern Qi army has been retreating one after another, and those people in the Wushuang faction are obviously capable of saving the country, but they hide in the door and do not come out. They are really despicable and shameless to the extreme.

In a teahouse in the imperial city, a storyteller who was bought by the palace was spitting bad things about Mu Lian.

"Mu Sheng, what does it mean to worship a saint? A saint can control the country! I think back when she Mu Lian became a saint, the king immediately issued an edict to announce to the world, respecting her as a saint of the Northern Qi Dynasty! But now, she Mu Lian does not miss you. Well, if you don't care about the people's sentiments, you will just hide in your three-quarter acre of land in the western suburbs and be unable to come out! Poor our good men of Northern Qi, they are fighting bloody battles at the border! How can such selfish people still Called a saint? Everyone, please speak your conscience, should we go to such a saint, talk to her, and let her know where she went wrong?!"

After the storyteller finished his long speech, his whole face was flushed with excitement.

However, in the teahouse, the guests who were drinking tea just raised their eyelids and glanced at him, and did not respond to his impassioned words.

The storyteller was stunned, what's going on?

His speech today was very good, why didn't everyone suddenly buy it?

In the past, didn't everyone immediately believe in the rumors about Mu Shengdu's rumors, and then spread the word to hundreds of people, and then hit the door to make a fuss?
Why did everyone keep quiet after hearing what he said today?

He thought for a while, and it must be that the words he used were not fierce enough, and the revelations were not dark enough and cruel enough.

The common people may have been tired of listening to rhetoric such as envying the saints, being unkind and selfish, no, he has to change some new words.

The storyteller racked his brains for a while, and suddenly a flash of light flashed in his mind, and he remembered a past event about Mu Lian.

This incident happened when the other party was in Tianhai City, very few people in the imperial city knew about it, so he could definitely make a fuss about it.

After thinking of this idea, the storyteller calmly took a sip of tea, and then slammed the gavel.

"Speaking of Mu Sheng..."

A tea guest suddenly said, "If you make up Mu Sheng's swear words again, don't blame me for throwing you downstairs!"

The speaker was suddenly interrupted, his face turned pale at first, and then turned red again.

"What is choreography? I'm an iron-mouthed man, and I always tell the truth. Why have I ever choreographed someone else?"

The guest sneered, "Then you go on, I want to hear what you have to say!"

The conversation between the two attracted the attention of other people in the teahouse.

Under the watchful eyes, the storyteller calmed down and continued to speak, "It is said that Mu Sheng once wrote a "Letter to Female Compatriots" when he was in Tianhai City. This article was abandoned by the people of Tianhai City. Therefore, countless people took to the streets, wanting to drive Mu Sheng out of Tianhai City. My guest, is what I said the truth?"

Seeing the smug expression on the storyteller's face, the guest remained silent, but nodded his head.

The storyteller then looked around and said, "Then, do you know what method Mu Sheng used to force back the siege and accusations against her by the people in the city?"

Many people present didn't know that Mu Lian had such a past, and they all shook their heads, expressing that they didn't know.

The storyteller proudly said, "That's because you don't know that Mu Sheng has the ability to pretend to be a ghost. She can use secret methods to conjure a nine-day goddess! I heard that when the goddess appeared, there were thousands of miles of clouds floating, colorful petals falling from the sky, and The fairy music is curling up! The goddess said that Mu Sheng respected her law and intended to preach to the world, but the common people thought it was true, and they all knelt down to worship! But this goddess is a fake at all, since that time After that, she never reappeared. This isn’t Mu Sheng fooling the people, what else could it be? Mu Sheng really has a heart to kill! In my opinion, she should... ah ah!"

Before he could finish his last words, a grandma in the building who was carrying a teapot to refill the hot water for the guests suddenly walked up behind the storyteller and splashed hot water on his buttocks, causing him to let out a murderous pain. Pig-like screams.

"You, are you dying, old woman? Who told you to scald me with boiling water?!"

Granny took back the kettle slowly and said, "Young boy, you are not sincere. It's fine if you don't see the Empress Jiutianxuan, but you dare to make up bad things about her. I will pour some hot water on you today to make you grow up." Long memory. Don’t talk nonsense in the future, accumulate some evil virtues for yourself, and don’t ask ghosts to pull out your tongue after you go to hell!”

The storyteller was shocked and angry. He was about to refute Grandma's words, but he saw that other people in the teahouse were also looking at him with unfriendly eyes.

He knew in his heart that something must have happened that he didn't know.

No, the situation must have changed, he has to inform the master immediately!

The storyteller got up from the ground, endured the severe pain in his buttocks, and ran away with a limp.

The monarch of Northern Qi thought that Mu Lian was guarding the sect's gate during this time because she was afraid of war and because she was selfish.

But Mu Lian had already seen through An Yun's plan to kill her, so how could she easily get into it?

As soon as this war started, anyone with some foresight could see that with the absolute superiority of the Qin army, this march south was bound to wipe out the Northern Qi, Wei and other countries, and complete the great cause of unifying the world.

However, in this battle, millions of soldiers will die in battle, nearly ten million people will die, countless people will be displaced, and the land will be devastated.

War is the ugliest invention of mankind.

In war, there is never a real winner.

Mu Lian knew very well that she could withstand the Great Qin's southern invasion once, and also the second and third times...but she couldn't resist it forever.

To eradicate war from the root, it is necessary to use the most thorough and decisive method to completely smash the original order and then re-establish a new order.

She has been preparing for this operation for many days.

Today is the time to start the program.

On the Tianxia Wushuang faction's Chuangong square, there are only 560 eight people left in the gate, standing neatly in a square team.

Most of these people were boys and girls. At this time, they all looked solemn, quietly looking at the figure in green clothes standing on the high platform.

"...Our Wushuang faction has been established so far. Although it has not been long, we have gone through various hardships. Right now, the Great Qin Kingdom wants to rule the world in the name of 'asking for judgment from heaven', in the name of heaven. But now the war is raging Four times, apart from the loss of life, the separation of wives and children, and the separation of flesh and blood, what else can be gained in the end? In the past, Tianhai City was burned by the sky, and hundreds of thousands of people were buried in the sea of ​​flames overnight. I, Mu Lian, made a vow at that time, I want to build A big city that has never been seen before or since! In this city, people do not only love their relatives, nor do they only have sons and sons, so that the old will die, the strong will be useful, the young will be strong, and the widows, widows, lonely, disabled and sick will all be supported ! Today, I am going to open this city, are you willing to go with me?"

"Yes!" Everyone answered almost in unison.

Mu Lian's gaze scanned the faces of everyone present, she nodded slightly, then took out something from her sleeve, and gently threw it into the air.

That thing is good at facing the wind, and finally turned into an incomparably huge city, suspended high in the air.

All the disciples and stewards below were dumbfounded when they looked at the city.

This city is really too big.

When it is suspended in the air, not only people in the entire imperial city can see it, but also some other cities in the distance.
