Chapter 735

"General!"

"General, it's very nice of you to come!"

At this moment, outside the north gate of Dongning City, a crowd of civilians rushed towards an army with great joy.

Tang Tianxing and his son hid among the civilians and looked at the branch.

As you can see, the banner of the army and even their ordnance belong to the Zhu Yan empire.

The two exchanged glances, and saw that some of the civilians who fled out of the city directly called out the surname of the leader's pioneer general. They were sure that this army should be owned by Zhu Yan Empire, not the disguise of Bai lie Empire army or the disguise of bandits.

"People in front, stop!"

Before the civilians came into contact with the troops, the leading general suddenly shouted and scolded, followed by a big hand.

The sword and shield players at the front of the team immediately shouted together, heavily erected their shields to the ground, and built an iron wall between themselves and the civilians running in panic.

"General Yao, we are the people in Dongning!"

Seeing this, the civilians were shocked and shouted at the general surnamed Yao.

"Hum!"

The general surnamed Yao snorted again and shouted, "you say so?"

"Dongning city was destroyed half a month ago. What are you doing outside the city?"

"The general doesn't know!"

There was no lack of courage among the civilians. They hurried out of the crowd, bowed to general Yao, and then cried, "recently, there were bandits in Dongning City, and there were many people in exile."

"But then the bandits robbed the money and food and left. We homeless people had to dare to go back to Dongning city again."

The civilian paused, beat his feet and chest and said, "but we just went back. Not long ago, another gang of robbers came. Now they are entrenched in Dongning city. But we had to fly out of the city again!"

"Fortunately, the general came and asked him to save the people from fire and water and drive away the hateful robbers!"

General Yao didn't respond much to this story, but a group of civilians nearby wept sadly.

Among them, some died when the first wave of roving bandits attacked the city, and some were robbed, penniless and nearly starved to death.

It was a nightmare scene for them one by one. It was very painful to recall at this time.

"You said there were bandits coming again?"

General Yao didn't stare until he finished. His eyes crossed the crowd and looked at the calm Dongning city.

"Exactly!"

The civilian hurriedly said: "general Yao had been wandering in Dongning city before, and the villain also opened a wine shop in Dongning city before. Fortunately, he met the general once, so he recognized the general!"

He tried to prove his identity for fear that general Yao would cut him off as one of the bandits.

"You... Look familiar."

General Yao stared at him carefully, nodded slightly and said, "so how many bandits are entering Dongning city at the moment?"

"This..."

As soon as he said this, the civilians looked at each other.

Who knows how many?

As soon as they heard that bandits were coming, they were too scared to run. How could they turn back and count the number of people on the other side?

Among the many civilians present, none could answer general Yao's question.

"Hum!"

Seeing this, general Yao scowled and shouted, "you cowards!"

"Our Fengqi province has been bullied!"

"Why do you think this is?"

"It's just that you are easy to bully!"

"If you can't keep your own home, what else can the Empire expect you to do?"

A series of angry drinks made the civilians submissive and dare not say more.

Although he was angry and thought it should be a matter for the army, general Yao said a good thing.

Dongning city is their home.

Their home was invaded. Their first reaction was to turn around and run away. They didn't even have the courage to take a look.

"General Ben heard..."

General Yao glanced at the crowd and said coldly, "the last time I attacked your Dongning City, there were only more than 30000 people."

"And how many of you?"

"Huh?"

"The entire Dongning city has a resident population of more than 500000!"

"More than 500000 people were slaughtered by 30000 others?"

"You!"

"How dare you run to the general and cry?"

"If I were you, I would have bought a piece of tofu and killed myself!"

General Yao was a hot tempered man. With that momentum, he really pointed at the people's noses and scolded them one by one without leaving any face.

Dongning civilians were scolded by him and couldn't raise their heads.

Yes, there were more than 500000 people in the original Dongning city.

But they also know why.

The whole Fengqi province is in the midst of war, and Ouyang, who is regarded as the God of war of Fengqi, is also trapped in Nantes province and can't come back.

A little mind can see the danger of the situation.

Therefore, in order to protect themselves, many capable people in the city had run away with their families long before the roving bandits called, but the old, weak, sick and disabled accounted for the majority.

When the bandits came, it was late at night. For a moment, the whole city cried out. In that case, these unarmed civilians, how can they have any room to resist?

As for this time's escape, it was already feared.

It is said that once bitten by a snake for ten years, they are afraid of the well rope. As soon as they hear that bandits and robbers are coming, they can't resist. Naturally, they can only run away.

But who dares to explain to general Yao at such a time?

General Yao drank and scolded for a while, but he couldn't get any response. He was also discouraged. He said, "since you won't fight side by side with this general, it's up to you."

"Get out of the way and find a place to hide. When general Ben recovers Dongning City, you'll come back!"

With that, he waved his hand, but also pointed out the escape route to the civilians.

Tang Tianxing and Tang Feng mingled in the crowd. Looking at general Yao's words and deeds, they couldn't help looking at each other and nodded.

Although this man has a hot temper, he is bent on thinking of the Empire.

He was furious. After drinking and scolding the civilians angrily, he still pointed out a way of life for the other party, rather than forcing them to return and attack the so-called bandits in Dongning city.

From this point alone, Tang Tianxing has been able to recognize it.

At this time, when Tang Tianxing was preparing to go out and explain to general Yao that the bandits in the city were not bandits, he suddenly turned his head and looked back.

But Guo Zi's horse whipped up and had already rushed over.
