Chapter 92
As the capital city of Xuzhou, Yibin City is not as prosperous as CD City, but it is not far behind.It's just that now it has experienced an earthquake, coupled with a flood, it looks a bit dilapidated and depressed.The tall city walls are still there, and the city gates have been closed tightly according to the orders of the generals who defended the city, but no matter how tight the defense is, it will still be inseparable from people.The morale of the soldiers on the city wall was low, and the people in the city were also in a daze, looking indifferent.

Sunlight falls on the city, there are about 8000 to 3000 White Lotus Cultists outside Yibin City, and the total number of soldiers in Yibin City is only more than [-]. How can this prevent them from despairing?

The city is broken only in the blink of an eye. Although the opponent has not yet attacked the city, it is only because the process has not been completed.

process, yes.There is a rule that the two armies fight first. When attacking a city, the generals of both sides should be the first to shout. Probably you should surrender quickly, or you will die, and the other side will say a few words, don’t think about it, we will stick to it. Yes, nonsense like that.These are all to break down the morale of the opponent first.Although the White Lotus Sect's victory was already decided, they still wanted to speak up, in order to tell people what they needed to know.

In the open space between the city gate and the Bailian believers, Wang Siliu was riding a tall horse, dressed in plain linen, holding a long spear in his hand, looking very energetic.Although he doesn't know how to use a gun, even though he was supported by others to ride a horse, and although he also knows that he is just a puppet, his face is still flushed with excitement.The puppet emperor is also an emperor.

"Listen, officers and soldiers in the city." Wang Siliu clumsily danced the spear in his hand twice, and shouted loudly: "Heavenly fire is falling, and Kowloon is coming out, killing the world without the surname Zhu, and the warnings from the sky are already very obvious. Yes! I am Wang Siliu, the Heavenly Fate General of the White Lotus Sect! Today, the people of our Xuzhou have encountered catastrophe one after another, and the imperial court does not think of rescue, but instead extorts violently, traps the people in the fire and water, and has lost their destiny."

Having said this, Wang Siliu raised the spear in his hand: "Today, I, the White Lotus Holy Sect, comply with the destiny of heaven, and bring heavenly soldiers and generals for..."

Wang Siliu's voice was very loud, his tone was up and down, and he seemed impassioned.The people in the city who are near the city gate can hear it clearly.

It's all vernacular, and they can understand it, but they don't care.What is destiny?Whoever can feed them is the destiny, and what else has it to do with them?
Li Tie, the general defending the city, was covered in armor, lying on the top of the wall and looking helplessly at Wang Siliu below. He couldn't hold this Yibin city. He knew it very well. In his heart, he really wanted to open the door and surrender. Not the time.The night before yesterday, he received a secret order from the King of Shu, which stated that he could surrender, but he had to say a few words at a critical moment. . . . . .

"Fathers and folks in the city," Wang Siliu finally got to the point: "This time, we, the White Lotus Sect, started the incident to save you from the sea of ​​suffering. We have already prepared sufficient food, as long as... .”

At this moment, in the city, Li Tie's anger sank to his dantian, and he shouted: "Enough!" The voice overwhelmed Wang Siliu, and he was stunned for a moment.

Li Tie asked loudly: "You said that there is enough food, you really mean it!"

"Of course it's true." Wang Siliu replied decisively: "We have a lot of food to save the people from suffering..."

"Sure enough, it's you!" Wang Siliu wanted to say a few more words, but Li Tie's voice sounded again.

I saw Li Tieyi shouted righteously: "It's not that the court didn't help, but the food was robbed by you! Thousands of carts of food were robbed by you on the way!"

As Li Tie was speaking, he turned around and faced the people in the city who gradually gathered at the city gate because of Wang Siliu's words: "Fathers and folks, the imperial court remembers you, and the emperor did not give up on you, it's just his old man. The rescue was sabotaged by the evil members of the White Lotus Sect outside. The millions of tans of food, divided, even if we let it go, it will be enough until next year's autumn harvest. But now it all falls into the hands of the White Lotus Sect outside the city !"

Having said this, Li Tie raised his hand and wiped his eyes with the ginger in his hand without any trace. His eyes suddenly burst into tears. Coupled with his natural broken gong voice, he was particularly contagious: "You can't protect the people." , it is my incompetence, Li Tie, but the subsequent rescue from the imperial court will not arrive in a short time. In order for you to have food to eat and survive, I, Li Tie, am willing to sacrifice the city. I only hope that they can fulfill their promise and keep you alive. !”

After Li Tie finished speaking, he turned and looked at Wang Siliu at the bottom of the city: "Can you keep your promise and distribute the food to the people!"

The sound echoed in everyone's ears, and the originally noisy scene became quiet.

Among the army, Tang Saier looked gloomy and said nothing.

"It's broken." Sikongxuan secretly said, his mind was quick, and he was the first to react.Zhu Chun's plan is here!He personally robbed the food, he knew the best in his heart.Not to mention thousands of carts, millions of loads, all added up is only one or two hundred carts of grain.What's more, what the other party said was too outrageous, and there were still several million dans of grain. It's hard to say whether the amount of grain collected by the court in a year is even this amount.But now there is no way to stand up and confront.After all, when transporting grain last night, I saw more than one or two people. These uneducated peasants didn't know whether they robbed millions or hundreds of tans, and they didn't count them.

Worse, the surrounding White Lotus Sect senior officials also realized it one after another, with cold sweat breaking out on their heads.

"Uh..." Wang Siliu immediately felt a little dazed. This paragraph was not included in the words Mrs. Zhao asked him to memorize before.

Subconsciously looking back at the people behind him, Wang Siliu replied bravely: "As long as you open the city gate and surrender, I promise to feed everyone and keep them full."

It has to be said that Wang Siliu was still a little shrewd, he didn't mention the food, he only said that he was full.

"Okay! That's what you said!" Li Tie shouted loudly when he heard this, and then ordered loudly: "Brothers, open the city gate, we surrender!"

Whether it's the White Lotus Sect, or the soldiers in the city, the people in the city were a little suspicious that what Li Tie said was just a joke, but they didn't expect it to be true!
squeak~
After a sound of a wooden wedge mechanism, the gate of Yibin City slowly opened.

Yibin City officially opened the gates to the White Lotus Sect. No secret whistle, no engineering equipment, all of which are useless, and they were prepared for nothing.

"Thank you, General Li." The people in the city fell to their knees one after another.The poor language made them unable to say what to thank Li Tie, but they knew that they could survive.

Li Tie's face turned red and he was very ashamed. Fortunately, he was naturally dark and others couldn't tell.

"This..." The corner of Wang Siliu's mouth twitched a few times, and then he could only helplessly send an order: "Go to the city!"

Riding on the horse, he walked towards the city gate first with coquettish eyebrows.

The prince really has a clever plan. Li Tie hugged his shoulders on the city wall, squinted his eyes, and watched quietly, "tens of thousands of people are grateful to me, and the three thousand brothers under him are intact. Even if you want to kill me, you can't kill me,"

In one morning, Yibin fell, and seven days later, the entire 16 counties of Xuzhou Prefecture fell into the control of the White Lotus Sect. It didn't cost a single soldier, but every county almost said Li Tie's words before opening the door , the wording may be different, but the general meaning is still the same.

It's not that the White Lotus Sect didn't think of a way to deal with it, but it didn't work.When the guard asks you if you have any food, you can't say no, can you?If you dare to deny it, then the newly added [-] defenders and [-] young men in Yibin City will turn against you on the spot.Ever since. . . .

For a time, the whole of the prefecture of Syria spread the word: The White Lotus Sect has food, and it is full.The amount of grain has also changed from a few million tons at the beginning to tens of millions of tons.

"Haha, our people in Xuzhou are really cute." In the study room of Prince Shu's Mansion, Zhu Chun put down the report in his hand, laughed loudly, and then looked at He Bin sitting opposite: "Master He, do you understand?"

He Bin smiled wryly and said: "I understand, but my lord, can you explain to me next time, I heard that food was robbed before, and I am a humble..."

"Hey~" Zhu Chun waved his hands and smiled, "It won't work if I say it."

'I was so scared that I almost went crazy! He Bin felt helpless, and squeezed a smile on his face: "Then what should we do next? Please show me the prince."

next?Zhu Chun thought for a while and said, "Next, I'll ask Mr. He to listen to a new piece by Ben Wang.

"What song?"

"It's hard to get off a tiger!"
