The end of the world begins with the king

Chapter 442

In order to fight for the right to survive, under the instigation of secret agents from Prince Yong's Mansion, the people in Liu'an gathered in large numbers and besieged the grain depot.

Nearly a thousand people besieged desperately for food.

After all, the number of soldiers in the Ming army was too small, and the grain depot was finally unable to support them. They were beaten and fled.

After these soldiers fled, Liu'an City was completely out of control.

The common people rushed into the grain depot, desperately grabbing the grain, and after taking the grain back, they brought their family members to grab it again. Fighting and bloodshed were inevitable.

The situation got out of control, Liu'an County became a jungle world, and Xingyuan's side was not much different.

Different from Liu'an, the people in Xingyuan found something wrong on their own initiative, and then began to connect with each other. The secret agents of the palace only played a negligible role.

On May [-]th, this was the second day of the uprising in Liu'an County, and Gao Zheng'an was leading an army to Xingyuan County.

In Liu'an, Gao Zheng'an sent Hu Yangping to take over.

At this moment, Xingyuan County is already on the eve of the storm.

Because of the lessons learned from Liu'an, the troops transporting the last batch of food in Xingyuan were strengthened, and there were nearly 300 Xingyuan defenders.

The people of Xingyuan noticed that something was wrong, but they were still in a state of gathering, and the soldiers of the Ming army had already loaded all the grain into the trucks.

According to Zhu Jinzhang's order, they had to destroy as much of the city as possible before transporting the last batch of grain.

For example, tearing down the city gates, burning down the buildings in the city, and even killing people are allowed!
Therefore, when people gathered outside the grain depot, the soldiers inside would strike first and kill them with their knives in hand.

After more than a hundred unarmed civilians were killed two to thirty people in a row, they realized that these soldiers dared to fight the real thing, so they scattered like birds and beasts.

"That's good, murder and set fire, you can do whatever you want!"

Qianhu Zhu Xiaoan was lecturing, only to hear him change the subject: "But there is one thing, at least you have to be in a team of five people, and you must not fall into the hands of these untouchables!"

"Do you understand?"

"Understood!" The soldiers' blood surged up.

Of course their blood will surge, today they can have fun, and no rules can restrain them.

"Go!" Zhu Xiaoan waved his hand.

He will stay where he is, guarding the food with the remaining hundred soldiers.

More than 200 soldiers were divided into [-] teams, and they wandered around the city respectively, and murder and arson were staged everywhere in the city in an instant.

Murder, food robbing, adultery... all kinds of human tragedies were staged in Xingyuan County.

At the east gate of Xingyuan, Zhang Ziming staggered to the bottom of the city wall, but he didn't even see a guard of the city gate.

Hearing the faint shouts of killing coming from inside, Zhang Ziming almost thought that the Yong army had broken the city.

Seeing that the zombies had already chased him, Zhang Ziming had no choice but to continue to flee on horseback. When he circled around the north gate, he finally found the defenders.

"Who?" The people above scolded.

The north gate is the way for Zhu Xiaoan to evacuate for a while, so he stationed troops here.

"It's me, Qianhu Zhang Ziming!"

Zhang Ziming has a great reputation, after all he has won many battles.

The soldiers guarding the city checked carefully, and after confirming that it was Zhang Ziming, they shouted inside: "It's Zhang Qianhu, open the door quickly!"

After escaping from Tianmabao, Zhang Ziming believed all the way, and encountered dangers of his life several times, but in the end he escaped and returned.

Entering the city, Zhang Ziming first asked: "Where is the prince? How is the battle going?"

This is his biggest concern.

The small flag officer on guard replied: "Baishan County was defeated and our army suffered heavy losses. The prince has led his army back to Liaoping Prefecture!"

Zhang Ziming's expression changed drastically, and then a look of pain appeared on his face.

So much painstaking effort was wasted and so many brothers died, but this result still did not change.

Could it be that the Jin court is really exhausted?But why did the heavens send disasters?Zhang Ziming couldn't figure it out.

He can't understand such a big matter, but he can ask clearly about the matter in front of him.

"What happened in the city?" Zhang Ziming asked.

The little flag official replied: "The untouchables are in chaos, and our army is suppressing them!"

The word "untouchable" sounded particularly harsh to Zhang Ziming.

"Why did you make a mess?" Zhang Ziming asked again.

"This..." The little banner officer couldn't answer.

Of course he couldn't answer, he was just a small flag officer, he was an ordinary citizen a year ago, he only learned how to ride a horse half a year ago, and he became a small flag officer only a month ago.

Zhu Jinzhang's plan was only known to the high-level Ming army, so how could a small banner officer know about it.

"Who is your boss? Who is the biggest official?" Zhang Ziming asked coldly.

"It's Zhu Xiao'an and Zhu Qianhu!" the little banner official replied.

"Take me to meet him!"

"Someone, bring Zhang Qianhu there!"

Following the soldiers leading the way, Zhang Ziming walked into the city.

Then he saw the Ming army who raped women in the street, and the corpse of this man was placed next to him.

Zhang Ziming felt very sad, but when he thought of Ci not in charge of soldiers, he suppressed the anger in his heart.

Continuing forward, quilts were set on fire everywhere, and corpses could be seen after a short walk.

When he passed by an alley, he saw several soldiers beating an old woman, and beside him was the corpse of an old man.

"Forgive...forgive..." The old woman was dying.

The old woman's eyes were full of desire to survive, but the soldiers would not let her go.

"Stop!" Zhang Ziming yelled loudly.

Several soldiers looked at each other coldly, and even raised their knives to kill him, but after all, someone recognized him.

"It's Zhang Qianhu!"

"Why beat people? Why kill people indiscriminately?" Zhang Ziming approached step by step, his eyes full of coldness.

He endured it again and again, but when he saw the situation in front of him, he could no longer bear it.

Back then, his parents were beaten to death. The look in his eyes before death was exactly the same as that of this old woman. He will never forget it in his life.

The soldiers were speechless, they were simply killing, and they didn't have any answers.

"Respond!" Zhang Ziming yelled, and then slapped the team leader, the little flag officer.

A group of soldiers glared at them, they were already red-eyed, and now they were much more courageous than usual.

Zhang Ziming bent down, but the old woman was already dead.

People cannot be resurrected after death, and it is impossible for Zhang Ziming to kill all these people.

"Get out, get out!"

After these people left, Zhang Ziming stood up slowly, and said to the soldiers leading the way behind him, "Take me to see Zhu Xiaoan!"

Suppressing the people does not mean harming the people, he must see Zhu Xiaoan, only he can stop this.

At this moment, Zhu Xiaoan had already commanded the soldiers to transport the food to the north gate.

"What? Zhang Ziming is still alive?"

After receiving the report, Zhu Xiaoan was extremely surprised, and everyone thought he was dead.

"Exactly, it's outside the grain depot now!"

Zhu Xiaoan turned around and said, "Okay, I'll go see him!"

Zhang Ziming stood outside the grain depot, seven or eight feet away from the gate, watching the carts transporting grain out.

He wanted to talk about it in the grain depot, but there were too many people inside, and he thought that there might be a quarrel in a while, so he didn't go in.

Just as Zhang Ziming was thinking, he heard someone laughing from the direction of the grain depot: "Brother Zhang, you are still alive...it's really great!"
