Chapter 336: The Floating Corpse in the Evil City of the Stupid Emperor
The foolish monarch looked at the densely packed Shen-character flags under the city, madness in his eyes, waved his hand and spoke.
"Come on, send out troops quickly to take all the lowly people in the city into custody. Take a thousand people to the city walls first. Aren't you here to petition for the people and purge the emperor? Humph, I want to see for myself whether Shen Yue is a human or a ghost when the lives of the lowly people are at stake."
When the officials around the tyrant realized what he was going to do, they were all stunned.
Is this emperor who wants to slaughter his own people still an emperor?
Admonish? No, no, no. Compared with your own life, the lives of the untouchables are naturally more noble.
The entire Yuezhou was surrounded, and when it came to life and death, one's own life was naturally the most important thing. We were just untouchables, and death was not a pity.
It's not that no one among them knows that this move is absolutely inappropriate. It's like digging their own graves, and the tyrant king will lose the support of the people. Although they understand everything in their hearts, they all keep silent because of selfishness. They watch helplessly as the tyrant king's confidants take the order and leave, and the running dogs rush down the city wall with the tyrant king's orders and spread into thousands of households in the city.
For a while, the entire Yuezhou city was in turmoil.
Long with sorrow, women weep, children fear, men hate...
"Oh my God, please open your eyes. Oh my God, we ordinary people have no way to survive!"
"If you want to catch me, release my children and my wife, and don't hurt them..."
"Dad, Dad, I'm afraid..."
"Mister, Mr. Mr...."
"Wuwuwu, there is no way out, there is no way out..."
"How can a man of such character be a king? Heaven wants to destroy Dajing! Heaven wants to destroy Dajing! My late emperor, please open your eyes. With a tyrant in power, the country will no longer be a country! The country will no longer be a country!"
"Bah, old man, you dare to speak ill of His Majesty, you deserve to be killed! I will send you to the guillotine first!"
"Bah! I am not afraid! A tyrant and unjust ruler will be forsaken by heaven and earth. A tyrant and unjust ruler will be forsaken by heaven and earth..."
Seeing the innocent people who were escorted in from all over the city rebelling and uttering wild words, the despotic monarch was so angry that he wished he could cut these untouchables into pieces and eat their flesh alive.
You dare to insult the emperor, aren't you afraid that he will kill your entire clan?
Moreover, he was an emperor, a wealthy emperor! He only wanted to save the lives of a bunch of lowly people. Shouldn't they be grateful to him and shed tears of gratitude for their sacrifice for him? Yet he was so ungrateful.
The tyrant was furious and swung his sleeves, "Humph, you lowly people, it is your honor to die for me, yet you dare to curse me, you deserve to be killed, come on, take all these lowly people up and kill them!"
Following the order from the tyrant, a thousand innocent civilians were escorted to the city wall first, and one by one they were pushed to the lookout posts on the wall. The scene of the Shen family's sacrifice in the past was repeated.
At the bottom of the city wall, General Xu, who had sensed something was wrong, hurriedly handed the telescope in his hand to his master Shen Yue who had come to join him: "General, please have a look. I'm afraid the situation on the tower ahead is not good!"
Shen Yue quickly took the telescope, took a closer look, and his expression changed instantly, "Damn it!"
At this moment, on the tower, in the observation holes, innocent people were held upside down, with sharp blades on their necks, and forced to climb up to the observation holes one by one...
This scene made Shen Yue's eyes red. The scenes of his own mother and clansmen dying that day flashed before his eyes. Shen Yue's body was shaking, almost in pain. He only heard someone on the city wall shouting in his direction.
"Listen up, everyone, especially Shen Yue. Don't you call yourself a commoner? Look, open your eyes and take a good look. Those standing in front of you are all innocent people in Yuezhou City. If you really care about the people and don't want to kill them, stop the war and retreat a hundred miles with your men. Otherwise, don't blame us for being ruthless."
When the soldiers on Shen Yue's side heard this, the entire army shook with a buzzing sound.
Everyone was shocked and looked towards the city wall in disbelief. They simply couldn't believe what they saw and heard.
"Damn it! Are these people still human? Has the tyrant lost his mind? Those on the tower are all Dajing's own people, his subjects! We all have the same blood, we are not foreigners! How dare they? How dare they!" Yes, how dare they!
"What a tyrant! What a tyrant! He is so inhumane that he attacks his own people. Damn it! How can we continue this war? Are all those people in the city dead? Ah? Are they all dead?"
"The tyrant king deserves death."
"That's right, damn it! Isn't it better to keep such an emperor for the New Year? General, give the order quickly, let's attack and destroy this tyrant in one fell swoop, and bring peace to the world, General!"
"Yes, General, please give the order, give the order quickly."
How could the foolish emperor and his entourage on the city wall not see the commotion below the city wall?
Seeing that the army formation below the city wall was still in place, ready for battle at any time, with no intention of retreating at all, the foolish monarch cautiously poked his head out to take a look. He could not help but utter a "tut" sound, with a ruthless look in his eyes. He waved his hand and signaled his attendants again.
"Kill, kill this group first, and use blood to tell Shen Yue that if he delays any longer and does not retreat, then what awaits him will not be just a few thousand people. Kill them mercilessly!"
He had to let these traitors know that when the emperor gets angry, millions of people will die!
Following the order from the tyrant, the sinister eunuch bowed and accepted the order, then nodded to the commanding general beside him.
"General Zhou..."
Following the sarcastic voice of General Zhou, the middle-aged general drew out the long sword from his waist with a buzzing sound, swung the sword down, and then the thousand people who were escorted to the lookout were all attacked by swords and axes.
Shrill and desperate wails escaped from their mouths, and blood-stained figures fell from the high city walls.
"The emperor is incompetent and unjust, Dajing will perish. The emperor is incompetent and unjust, Dajing will perish..."
"Ah, folks, open your eyes and take a look. Such a tyrant deserves the destruction of the country, ah..."
"Shen's army, don't hold back, kill, avenge us..."
Listening to the wailing sounds brought by the wind from afar, the Dingbei soldiers surrounding the four city gates were shocked and their eyes turned red. They couldn't help but clench their weapons tightly. They gritted their teeth, shook their hands, and glared fiercely at the city wall in front of them.
"General, those people..."
"Damn it, damn it! General, give the order quickly, let's attack Yuezhou City and kill that tyrant, kill that tyrant!"
At this moment, Shen Yue seemed to be trapped in a nightmare. He watched the figures falling one after another, and the painful cries resounded in his ears. It was as if he saw his own mother...
Amid the passionate cries of appeal, Shen Yue, with red eyes, raised his right hand high and swung it down heavily.
Immediately afterwards, the flag officer beside him began to signal with flags, drums beat, and the entire army moved, ready for the attack.
At this moment, the familiar loud voice of the eunuch leader was heard from the city wall again.
"Listen, little Shen Yue. His Majesty said that if you hesitate and don't withdraw your troops, these thousand people will be a lesson to you. More people will be pushed here next. Shen Yue, are you going to watch so many people die innocently for you? If you insist on insisting, then all the people in Yuezhou City will be killed by you, a willful and ignorant child. You are the executioner who implicated them..."
Following this shout, another group of people were pushed onto the city wall. They were like pigs, dogs, cows and sheep. Their number was twice as many as last time. One by one, their bodies were tied up behind their backs and driven to the lookout that had no cover and looked like the entrance to hell.
They were men and women, young and old, all of them were in a panic, crying, unwilling, afraid, praying, begging...
Unfortunately, God did not hear their prayers.
Sorry, I've been very busy these past two days and have stopped updating. Sorry, sorry.
