At this time, everyone's expressions changed and they looked at the source of the sound. They saw Han Fan riding a horse, followed by more than ten horseback followers and more than forty infantrymen who were running out of breath.
, were all Han sergeants, and even Han Fan himself had a piece of his official robe wet here and there. Apparently, the old prime minister risked his life and ran all the way on horseback in order to save the Han people in the ditch.
Han Jie followed Han Fan with tears in his eyes. He jumped off his horse, separated some of the guards who wanted to stop him, rushed to the ditch, looked at the corpse in the ditch, and cried loudly: "
It's all me who hurt you, I shouldn't, I shouldn't watch you being taken away!"
Gao Wangzhi crawled out of the ditch covered in blood, and hugged Han Jie and cried together. While crying, he said: "Sacrificial wine, if you had come a moment later, we, we would be separated by yin and yang.
ah!"
Han Fan's eyes were also sparkling with tears: "It was not me, nor Han Jijiu, who saved you, Assistant Professor Gao, it is Princess Lan who you should thank for surviving."
Gao Wangzhi woke up from a dream and knelt down and kowtowed to Murong Lan: "Thank you so much, Princess Lan, you are really a living Bodhisattva who saves the suffering. We, the people, are willing to build a shrine for you forever and worship you forever!"
Murong Lan sighed softly: "I came half a step too late, causing so many musicians to lose their lives. War is a matter between countries, a fight between soldiers, and the people should not be involved. Now both sides
The hatred has become deeper and deeper. If you stay in the city, you are afraid that your life will be at risk sooner or later. If nothing else, fill in the ditch first. Otherwise, I am afraid that the corpses of your companions will rot quickly.
Cause an epidemic!"
Gao Wangzhi gritted his teeth: "It's so pitiful for our companions who died so brutally without even a coffin, so they have to be buried collectively like this. However, Princess Lan, you are right. Now there is no condition to bury the body like an ordinary funeral."
After seven days of burial, we have no choice but to bury it.”
Murong Lan nodded: "It's not too late, you guys take action first."
Gao Wangzhi wiped away his tears and began to give orders to the musicians who were crawling out of the pit one after another. Murong Lan turned to look at Murong Lin and said in a deep voice: "General Murong, please follow what I just said.
You said you should act quickly. You were delayed for another half an hour just now. The military situation is urgent now. No one knows when the Jin army will come over. You should quickly organize these Xianbei households outside the city into the city and set up defenses at the top of the city.
Prevent the Jin army from raiding!"
Murong Lin curled up his lips: "I am the general of the Miyagi City Guards. Only the Queen Mother's token can mobilize me. Before, I was driven by the flying horse token. Now that the person who sent the order has been killed by Princess Lan, then
My mission this time is over, and no one can give me an order now. Taking my brothers back to Wei Palace City is what we have to do!"
Murong Lan said sternly: "Murong Lin, how long has it been and are you still thinking about evil things? Do you think I don't know your thoughts? Now most of the Han households in the city have been expelled, including the official residences and the main residences.
Kai, you are afraid that being late will affect you and your men from going to the grass valley to pick up treasures!"
Murong Lin's face turned slightly red, but he said solemnly: "Now that all the ministries are doing this, why do we have to waste time here? Princess Lan, I have always respected you, that's why I treat you like this.
You are so polite, otherwise, don’t say you are guilty, I will kill the Pegasus token messenger on you, I can take you down right away!”
Murong Lan faced Murong Lin and said in a deep voice: "Murong Lin, after all you are a veteran who has been in the army since Emperor Chengwu (Murong Chui) started his army. Why are you so ignorant of good and evil? If the skin is gone, how can the hair of the general be attached?"
What's the use of grabbing more money at this time? Once Guanggu City is destroyed, not to mention this small amount of money, even your lives will be taken away by the Jin army. Can't you tell the priorities?"
Murong Lin's expression changed: "How can this be such an exaggeration? It will take at least three days for the Jin army to get here from Linqu!"
Murong Lan gritted his teeth and said: "It takes time for the news of defeat to reach here. Besides, Liu Yu uses his troops very quickly and will not rest before advancing. It is very likely that he will send cavalry here overnight. You don't have three days to arrange the city defense."
, maybe the Jin army will arrive in an hour, this is the south gate, the closest place to the Jin army, what you have to do now is to guard this place."
Murong Lin's eyes narrowed slightly: "Although what you said makes sense, why should I listen to your orders?"
Murong Lan said coldly: "When my eldest brother started the army, he was not the emperor of Dayan. The emperor was Murong Wei in Chang'an. He obeyed power in emergencies. You didn't go to Chang'an to follow Murong Wei or Murong Chong, right?
.Why do you not understand this truth thirty years later as you did when you were a teenager?"
Murong Lin gritted his teeth: "But, after all, you are waiting for a crime. How did you get out? What if the soldiers and I listen to you and are held accountable afterwards?"
Han Fan said in a deep voice: "General Murong, we don't have time to argue about these trivial matters here now. I am the prime minister of the city, and I will take charge of the country's affairs when Your Majesty is away. All matters in the city are decided by the Queen Mother and I. Princess Lan herself
Being able to escape and command the city defense will give the whole city a backbone. Even if I take her to the Queen Mother now, I will definitely get the Queen Mother's authorization. Even if the Crown Prince is young, if His Majesty really cannot return intact, who in the city can act as the agent of the country?
Who else besides Princess Lan? Do you want to disobey Princess Lan’s order and delay her for a while so that she can deal with you with military law after she gains power? "
Murong Lin began to sweat on his forehead at this moment, but he was still unwilling to give up: "But, the Imperial Master at that time..."
Murong Lan sneered: "How long has it been since we still counted on him? We still have to wait until he comes back to deal with his crimes of recklessly starting a war and ineffective command. Including issuing orders to massacre the Han people here and expelling the Han people in the city, it was also a good thing he did.
Murong Lin, why don't you think about it carefully, if you continue to kill Han people and create conflicts at this time, how can you defend the city? Dayan is not only the country of the Murong family and the Xianbei people, but also the country of millions of Han people in Qilu.
, you want to push all the Han people to Liu Yu's side, what is your intention?!"
Now Murong Lin did not dare to talk anymore, he quickly performed a military salute, turned around and began to arrange the troops after standing up, while Yuwen Hailanhu and other Xianbei people also followed his men and began to enter the city in an orderly manner.
The Han musicians who survived the disaster, with the assistance of the sergeants brought by Han Fan, began to wipe away tears and fill the ditch. Soon, the murderous and overcrowded city outside became much emptier.
