"Zhizhi..." Nitian Monkey looked dazed. He seemed to be sleeping. Before his eyes were fully opened, he sat down on a chair and screamed. He seemed very upset that Zhao Yuan had disturbed his sweet dream.
It's dissatisfaction.
"Monkey, look who's coming!" Zhao Yuan said with a smile.
"Squeak..." The sky-defying monkey looked up, and a pair of confused eyes suddenly shot out electric light. At the same time, his body was like lightning and he jumped towards the Bull Demon King. With a pair of indestructible monkey claws, he hit the bull with his chest.
The devil took it out.
"Ahhh... Monkey, Lao Niu is not here to fight with you..."
Seeing the Heaven-defying Monkey rushing towards him, the Bull Demon King was horrified. He was so frightened that he backed away. He hurriedly summoned a thick black shield in front of him. The black shield was grabbed by the Heaven-defying Monkey, making a harsh sound. The solid metal shield
The face was torn apart with several piercing cracks, which was shocking.
"Hey, he's here to see you. What are you doing?" Zhao Yuan rushed over and grabbed Nitian Monkey. Fortunately, Nitian Monkey didn't attack Zhao Yuan, but his eyes were fixed.
He stared at the Bull Demon King with a fierce fighting spirit.
"Monkey, I have no enmity with you, why would you kill me on sight?" The Bull Demon King looked depressed.
"I've long been displeased with you." Ni Tianhou spoke in human language and snorted coldly.
"..." The Bull Demon King was speechless.
"Okay, okay, it's rare for us to be together. From now on, we will all be brothers!"
"Who is his brother?" Nitian Monkey said coldly.
"Ahem..." Zhao Yuan was also speechless.
"Forget it, how could Nitian Monkey, the famous leader of the Four Famous Monkeys, recognize me as a brother?" The Bull Demon King was also open-minded and grinned.
"Ox Demon King, what are you doing here?" the Heaven-defying Monkey asked, puckering his lips.
"I heard that you were at General Zhao's place, so I came to seek refuge..."
"Hey, you treat me like a three-year-old child and listen to your nonsense. If you, the Bull Demon King, don't meet an opponent, will you come to Zhao Yuan?" Nitian Monkey sneered.
"This...ahem..."
"Okay, okay, you are old enough. It's rare to get together today. Instead of talking about grievances and grudges, just eat a big piece of meat and drink a big bowl of wine!"
"We don't eat meat!" Bull Demon King and Nitian Monkey said in unison.
"..."
…
As expected, there was no meat that night, and the table was piled high with fruits and pastries. However, there were dozens of jars of wine placed in the corner, like a mountain.
One person, one monkey, and one cow, drinking freely. The Bull Demon King has an astonishing amount of wine. He slaps a jar of wine away and swallows it when he raises his neck. Zhao Yuan's drinking capacity is not bad, so he drinks a few jars with him. When he can't drink anymore, he uses magical power to transform it.
However, Nitian Monkey's drinking capacity is very poor, and the quality of the wine is very poor. When he was drunk, he grabbed the Bull Demon and beat him violently. The Bull Demon King did not dare to fight back and could only endure it with his eyes wide open. Zhao Yuan was dumbfounded.
, is this the legendary cruel Bull Demon King?
This meal lasted until early in the morning. After the drunken Nitian Monkey beat up the Bull Demon, he started chatting with the Bull Demon incoherently. After talking about the past, he was filled with snot and tears.
In the end, the two drank so much that they hugged each other and cried, fell down on the spot, and fell asleep.
Naturally, Zhao Yuan would not drink wildly with them. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to inquire about news!
However, what depresses Zhao Yuan is that although Yi Niu and Yi Monkey talked about everything, they were confused, incoherent, and messy, without the slightest clue. With Zhao Yuan's IQ, he could only get a rough idea.
After combing through it repeatedly, Zhao Yuan finally got some clues.
The general idea is that the two of them fought in the same camp despite being their own masters many years ago. Later, they died and died, and everyone was displaced, and finally lost contact. Now they meet each other.
, even the two iron "men" were particularly sad...
…
After racking his brains, Zhao Yuan only got some simple information, which was probably better than nothing.
After the two of them fell asleep, Zhao Yuan called a few monsters, carried an ox and a monkey to the bed to rest, and then continued working.
Due to large-scale military conscription, Zhao Yuan's official duties were very heavy, and documents that required his signature piled up every day.
Zhao Yuan did not dare to relax. He knew very well that the things he made casually might be related to the fate of some people's lives. In the future, he would not be able to stay in the Great Qin Empire. Naturally, he did not want to leave any sequelae. Therefore, the things that could be clarified were now
Just do it, plan ahead and never delay.
The documents recorded and signed by Zhao Yuan were actually the identities of some soldiers. In addition to their place of origin, etc., the most important thing was that Zhao Yuan wanted to pardon some deserters as prime minister, which required his personal signature for it to take effect.
This is the first time that Zhao Yuan has exercised the power of prime minister. For Zhao Yuan and the current Great Qin Empire, this power can almost be ignored. However, once peace comes, Zhao Yuan's amnesty will affect thousands of people.
The fate of thousands of families.
Zhao Yuan did not want the soldiers who fought bloody battles with him to end up being sent to a military court.
The next day, when the first ray of sunshine fell in Tongzhou City, the busy recruitment work began again. Many people had started lining up a few hours ago, for fear of being kicked out, because there was already a notice saying that the recruitment work would
It will end this afternoon, which means that if you should not be drafted into the army today, you will have no chance in the future.
In addition to the people in Tongzhou City queuing up all night, young adults from surrounding towns and villages are also coming in a steady stream from all directions.
In order to speed up efficiency, Zhao Yuan temporarily added several registration places.
Just as the recruitment work was in full swing, preparations for the expedition were also proceeding in an orderly manner.
What puzzled Tu Laoer and his group was that Zhao Yuan had explicitly ordered not to carry large amounts of food or heavy weapons.
Attacking Orange Island is not inferior to attacking Tongzhou City. If you don't carry weapons, it will only cause immeasurable casualties. However, no one dares to disobey Zhao Yuan's explicit order.
All preparations are kept simple. The food ration for each person is only three days' worth. Some heavy siege equipment is not allowed to be taken away at all. Even some excess armor and other military supplies are strictly prohibited from being taken away.
.
The most outrageous thing is that Zhao Yuan did not allow the Qin soldiers to destroy the excess military supplies, but instead sealed them in a warehouse, which made a group of generals feel incredible.
Since Tongzhou City is abandoned, then sealing these weapons is equivalent to leaving them to the Crusaders.
At the same time, Zhao Yuan ordered that all the dogs in Tongzhou City be killed, even the dogs in nearby villages and towns, and no one was spared.
Some of Zhao Yuan's actions made everyone feel unreasonable, but no one objected.
The legendary story of Zhao Yuan is very popular in the Qin Empire. Even some women and children can tell some of Zhao Yuan's classic battles. People have an almost blind worship of Zhao Yuan...
…
That night, the conscription ended. After statistics, the total number of new recruits was 78,000, of which 23,000 were veterans who had been defeated and re-enlisted.
After resting for two hours, in the early morning, in the dead of night, hundreds of thousands of troops set off on the road.
On the way without any warning.
Whether they were new soldiers or veterans, they all felt incredible about the sudden decision to abandon Tongzhou City. However, no one dared to disobey the military orders, not to mention that the coach was the notorious villain Zhao Yuan.
The legend about Zhao Yuan can be said to be mixed, but whether it is bad or good, there is no doubt that Zhao Yuan is an iron-blooded soldier. In addition to his steely willpower, he also has bloody wrists to challenge his authority.
, undoubtedly joking with his own life.
Hundreds of thousands of troops abandoned hundreds of thousands of Tongzhou City residents sleeping in their beds on a vast snowy night and left quietly.
Tongzhou City is so quiet at night without dogs that it is suffocating.
On this cold and freezing night, no one would be walking on the street. Even if someone encountered the evacuating troops, they would mistakenly think that Zhao Yuan was about to take some military action. They would never have thought that Zhao Yuan had completely abandoned Tongzhou City.
.
When the sun rose, the entire Tongzhou City was silent, and the originally heavily guarded city walls were empty.
At first, people did not take it seriously, but an atmosphere of fear soon spread throughout the city. Soon, people understood that Tongzhou City had been abandoned by Zhao Yuan.
No one knows why Zhao Yuan gave up Tongzhou City, but there is no doubt that this was a huge blow to the people of Tongzhou City. You must know that many people spent all their wealth in order to support Zhao Yuan, and many people even gave up their family members.
All the young and middle-aged men went to the battlefield, vowing to defend Tongzhou City even if they shed their last drop of blood. However, Zhao Yuan evacuated without any warning, and even left quietly without even saying hello.
