Jinghong Building

At this time, He Shuting had not realized that the place He Zongqun pointed out was only more than thirty miles away from the Beidaying stationed by the Chang'an Army.

And that place belongs to Longxi County!

He Zongqun looked sad and angry: "The Dark King is slapping us in the face!"

Only then did He Shuting realize the seriousness of the matter. Even if the abducted person was not Empress Xiao, even if it was just a peddler, as long as that place belongs to Longxi County, this is a provocation of the Dark King against Longxi County!

People from other places may not know who the Dark King is, but He Shuting, who is in Longxi County, knows it.

The Dark King's subordinates were not mobs, they were all court soldiers.

"How many people are there in the Dark King?" He Shuting asked.

He Zongqun has obviously investigated in detail. He said: "Although the Dark King's own army has only more than 70,000 people, all of these 70,000 people are elite. Not only that, the Fire Army, the Desert Old Nine, and the King of Twelfth Moon, these three forces are now He also defected to the Dark King, and all of them were counted, and he should be comparable to the Chang'an Army."

The Chang'an Army originally had 100,000 people. After destroying Xixiao, the casualties were supplemented by the prisoners of Xixiao Army. Now there are about 200,000.

In other words, the current Dark King is enough to compete with the Chang'an Army.

He Shuting was surprised. She thought that she could rest assured that Xi Xiao would be able to destroy him before He Ran conquered Hou Zhou.

Moreover, she underestimated the Dark King. She thought that the Dark King would be satisfied by snatching the caravans on the Silk Road, but she did not expect that the Dark King's appetite was no longer limited to those passing merchants. What he wanted now was from Longxi to Longnan. This endless mountain, river and land!

He Shuting looked at He Zongqun with tears in her eyes: "Brother, you must think of a solution. Everyone wants to bully us orphans and widows. All of these people's hearts are broken."

He Zongqun's face was gloomy: "Don't worry, brother will never give Xing Dashan an opportunity to take advantage of."

It was during the Chinese New Year that relatives and friends walked around each other, and the news spread quickly. In less than three days, the news that the Dark King wanted to occupy Longxi County was spread to everyone.

At the same time, the tyranny of the Dark King Xing Dashan was also reported.

"I heard that Xing Dashan likes to eat human flesh, especially baby meat."

"Xing Dashan is so beautiful, and he also likes to reward those women he has ruined to his subordinates, and even the soldiers have a share."

"The Dark King's men are not only horse bandits, but also soldiers. Xing Dashan allows them to rape, kill, and plunder. They even compete to kill people. Those who are the first to win can also get Xing Dashan's reward."

"Have you heard of the ghost city? Yes, the ghost city used to be called Wuyun City. After the Dark King entered the city, he ordered the slaughter of the city. There were more than 8,000 people in Wuyun City, all of which were killed. From then on, Wuyun City became a city that had become a slaughter. In the ghost town, at night, all the wronged souls are floating in the city. "

The rumors became more and more exciting. At night, the baby cried constantly, and the woman said, "Don't cry anymore. If the Dark King hears it, he will come and capture you."

On the fifth day of the first lunar month, shops in the city opened their doors to do business. In the new year, everything will be renewed, business will be prosperous, and wealth will be abundant.

However, on the fifth day of the first lunar month this year, all the shops were deserted and there was no customer in a long time.

It is not only the shops that are deserted, but also the streets of various counties in Longxi County are no one.

Every family is closed, and some wealthy families have packed up their belongings and are ready to go to their relatives' houses in other places to temporarily avoid them.

The black demon king who eats people and does not spit bones is about to come, and Longxi County will never have peace again.

He Shuting was anxious. This predictable danger was far more terrifying than the sudden ones. Even the little Wu Guochang, under the quiet intimidation of the wet nurse, put away his crying aggrievedly.

Fear, no matter men, women, young and old, no matter high or low, everyone is afraid.

Finally, the fear of the woman in the back home affected her men. The generals found He Zongqun and they asked to go to the battle.

He Zongjun shook his head and looked embarrassed: "The prince is too young, and the princess just wants peace and safety."

The generals disdain, peace? The **** peace, has that woman not woken up yet? Who can be safe if the Dark King enters the palace?

The news of Queen Xiao's abducted was no longer a secret. Some curious people have seen it. The clearly visible horseshoe marks and ruts, and even silk rags hanging on the shrubs, all told the world that it had happened here. In a fight, a luxuriously dressed woman was kidnapped.

"Today, Empress Xiao will be your wives, sisters and daughters here tomorrow!"

A general was angry. At this moment, he even hoped that the one who was kidnapped was the Princess of Chang'an.

He was the chief of Chang'an, and he admired his military advisor He Zongqun. He was proud of being the Chang'an army, but this did not mean that he was also loyal to the Princess of Chang'an.

He Shuting mistakenly thought that she would be the princess of Chang'an again, killed the generals who shouted to fight and kill her, and then asked He Zongqun to come forward to gather the morale of the army, fight a few victories, and let the remaining generals make a small fortune, so that these people can be made. Being loyal to her proved that this is far from enough.

There are reasons for He Shuting's demise, but in the final analysis, it is still related to the Wu family's father and son.

The main reason for Wu Dongming's failure was that the army was broken, the veteran generals were old, and the young generals had not yet grown up. In addition, Wu Ji took away most of the elite troops, He Ran took advantage of the situation, Fu Yansheng was experienced, and Wu Dongming was defeated.

Wu Ji's failure was due to several strategic mistakes in succession. He was braver, but he lacked available counselors around him. Although He Dali was not as brave as him, He Dali had a strategic team equipped with him by He Ran. This strategic team is studying Wu Ji and his army every day, and they are brave enough to fight against each other and plan. How can they be defeated?

But the world ignored all this and blamed He Shuting for all the failures of Wu.

Everyone believes that she is the culprit that led to the demise of the Wu clan.

The predecessor of the Chang'an Army was the Meng Family Army. The Meng Family Army had regarded Wu Dongming as a god. Now the Wu family is gone, but there is still Wu Guochang. These generals gritted their teeth and bowed to He Shuting, but deep down, they gritted their teeth at He Shuting. .

Unfortunately, He Shuting couldn't see the depths of their hearts. Her mother was noble because of her son, so she thought she could be compared with He Ran and Empress Dowager Man.

Now the Dark King has come to the door, but He Shuting doesn't let them do it, and the generals are filled with righteous indignation.

In desperation, He Zongqun invited He Shuting out. In front of He Shuting, the generals slapped the table and slapped the bench, which scared Wu Guochang to cry loudly. He Shuting silently shed tears. Finally, He Zongqun came out to smooth things over. He Shuting finally made the final decision and fought with the Dark King. , it is inevitable to win.

Five days later, the Chang'an army completed preparations and headed towards the Heisha City where the Black Demon King was stationed.

It was already many days later when He Ran received the news, and at that time, the Chang'an Army had already fought with the Dark Demon King.

Not long after, He Ran received news from the Northwest again, which surprised her this time.

Wu Ju, the son of Wu Dongming, is now the leader of the Changser Camp under the command of the Black Demon King.

And the abducted Empress Xiao is now Wu Ju’s wife.

Wu Ju took risks that day and led his troops to Longxi County to abduct Empress Xiao. He Ran no longer knew what to say. Wu Ju had engaged to Empress Xiao, which was a marriage between the Northwest clans. He Ran never thought that there would be love between the two.

The Changser Camp is active in the depths of the desert, and the martial rushes are rushing hundreds of miles to the beauty. What is this? This is love!

He Ran was not interested in the love between them, but there was one thing that made her very puzzled.

As we all know, Longxi County, and even Longnan, which was recently conquered, now all respect the Wu family, and the Wu family has only one child who can't speak completely.

Wu Ju cannot not know what is known to everyone, let alone Wu Dongming's old subordinates beside Wu Ju.

Strangely, Wu Ju would rather follow the Dark King to be a horse bandit in the desert than come to Longxi County. Why is this?

Moreover, the last time, he was only thirty miles away from the Beidaying of the Chang'an Army, but he did not reveal his identity and just snatched the person away.

He Ran couldn't figure it out, and He Zongqun obviously didn't understand what was going on.

Wu Ju was far away in the desert, and the information He Zongqun received was limited to the fact that he had visited Longxi County and snatched Queen Xiao.

He Ran called Zhong Yi and asked, "Are there anyone under your command who is familiar with the desert?"

Zhong Yi thought about it and shook his head slowly: "No."

Both of them fell into deep thought. Suddenly, Zhong Yi said, "There is a man named He Shaolin in Hejia Village. Do you still remember the boss?"

No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!

Of course, He Ran remembered that before she returned to Qingcang Mountain, the connection between Hejia Village and the outside world was entirely due to He Shaolin.

He Shaolin was away all year round. He brought the mountain goods and cloth produced by Hejia Village to the mountains to exchange for what the villagers needed. He also did some reselling business to make money for the village.

Zhong Yi said, "As far as I understand, the farthest place He Shaolin has been to is the desert."

He Ran was happy and asked Xiaoli to pass the order and summon He Shaolin to Beijing.

After the arrangement was completed, he sat there as steady as Mount Tai when he saw him. He Ran asked, "Do you have something to do?"

Zhong Yi was not too slow: "When are you going to ascend the throne?"

He Ran was stunned, and the two of them had eyes intersected in the air, and in just a moment, they separated.

"Wait a little longer, it's not possible now." Less than ten words were her answer.

Zhong Yi looked at her, and then turned the subject.

"Jing Chongguang, can you keep it?"

He Ran: "It's not easy to kill Jing Chongguang."

Zhong Yi stood up and said, "But try."

After Zhong Yi left, He Ran picked up yesterday's evening newspaper. There was an article about a piece of tofu in the corner, which was about strange stories in a certain place. A peasant woman gave birth to a son. This son had his ears and shoulders, and his feet were pedaled at seven stars. The monk said , this son has the appearance of an emperor.

Suddenly, one day, dark clouds were covered with lightning and thunder, and someone saw a golden dragon breaking through the cloud and falling.

Everyone rushed out of the house in the rain and left for the dragon.

The dragon traces were gone, so I could only ask the master to take action. The master calculated his fingers and pointed at one place. Everyone looked in the direction of the master's fingers and finally found a village.

Before I entered the village, the rain stopped. I saw the muddy ground, but it was full of claw marks. I followed the claw marks and found it all the way to a thatched hut. There was a person sitting in the middle, with his ears hanging on his shoulders and his feet pedaling on seven stars.

Everyone knelt on the ground, shouting long live the mountain, this son is the real dragon emperor.

This son ascended the throne and his country's name was Longteng.

After this son ascended the throne, he accepted the harem and passed on the family line. In this village and nearby villages, all the unmarried women were asked to be selected by Emperor Longteng. Within three days, Emperor Longteng's harem was filled with hundreds of people.

A girl had already been engaged, but was still selected by Emperor Longteng. Emperor Longteng saw this girl's bright and charming beauty, and was very happy and named her queen.

This girl would rather die than obey. She ran away overnight and fled to the county yard to inform the magistrate of the matter. It happened that there were bandits nearby. All the yamen runners in the county yard were sent to suppress the bandits. There were only three yamen runners left in the county yard. The magistrate had no choice but to send these three yamen runners to.

Two hours later, Emperor Longteng, together with the left and right prime ministers, the six ministers, and the Shenwei General, a total of ten people were escorted to the county yard by these three yamen runners, and the Longteng Dynasty was destroyed.

He Ran put down the newspaper, she could imagine that the people would be so happy that they couldn't stand up straight after seeing this.

This matter is not a random fabrication, but a fact. The Emperor Longteng was ordered to behead him.

In fact, before this, He Ran did not have the intention to kill the emperor. After receiving the note sent by her, she laughed it off. She was originally planning to let the Emperor Longteng and his ministers go to the mine to suffer. Don't be whimsical, but next, she received a note from the magistrate again and ordered the people to be beheaded.

The reason she did this was because all the women who were included in the harem by Emperor Longteng were sacrificed after Emperor Longteng was captured.

That's right, there were a total of 102 young women, the oldest was eighteen years old, and the youngest was only ten years old. None of them stayed, and all died.

Although their families insisted that they were voluntarily dying for their tribute, no one would believe that these women were forced by their families or old people in the village. They had entered the harem of Emperor Longteng, even if they were not favored, the living people In my eyes, there is no clean woman, and there is only a dead end.

This incident happened in a remote mountainous area. Jiangnan was fighting at that time, so not many people knew about it, so when it was mentioned, it was just a joke.

Behind this joke are one hundred and two young lives, so it is not ridiculous at all.

This is because of the tragedy caused by several fantasy neuropathies. The cause was to ascend the throne. Just today, Zhong Yi also mentioned ascending the throne.

He Ran asked Xiaoli to call Zhang Jiahui over, and she pointed to the tofu blocks in the evening newspaper: "Go to the Ministry of Justice to check the case, write the follow-up of this case into an article, and send it to the newspaper office."

The next day, the evening newspaper published all the cases. For a while, the entire capital was talking about the matter. The newspapers for several days were full of debates about the case and the one hundred and two women. Remembrance.

At this moment, He Shaolin entered Beijing. (End of this chapter)
