The first thousand and ninety-sixth chapter Juzhou rejoices!
The governor of Cangzhou stood in the courtyard and looked at the figures walking out of the hall. His legs gave out and he collapsed to the ground.
"General Wei, General Chen, Duke, Princess..."
He finally realized where the unknown premonition in his heart these days came from.
They fought back, they fought back again!
The governor's office was in chaos, and the rioters rushed in... No, they were not like rioters. They were organized and disciplined, and they neither smashed nor robbed. They only controlled the yamen and officials of the governor's office. There were only a few yamen in the governor's office.
The ten government officials had no ability to resist in front of hundreds of people. Soon, the noisy Governor's Mansion settled down.
A long time has passed, but there is still no movement among the more than 2,000 soldiers responsible for the security and defense of the city.
The Cangzhou governor raised his head and looked outside. The place where the fire was blazing was in the direction of the camp.
The only explanation is that when the governor's mansion was attacked, they were also attacked and could not protect themselves.
The deafening thunder and light of fire reminded him of the tragic scene in Thorn Ridge that night, when corpses were strewn across the fields, and his whole body shook like chaff.
Everyone in the Governor's Mansion gathered in one place. Chen Qing came over, waved his hand and said, "Take them down first."
It is not difficult to break into the Governor's Mansion. The gatekeepers are our own people. The terrain and defenses inside have been clearly understood. Minzhuang, who has been lurking around the Governor's Mansion, can attack in an instant.
They were caught off guard.
Wei Liang walked outside the gate and asked loudly: "How is the situation outside the city?"
There was a horse riding Juechen in the distance. General Fan got off his horse with a big smile and said: "There is divine punishment, there are magic weapons, and there are two captains who are our people. It is a surprise attack, and we should cooperate inside and outside. If we still fight this kind of battle,
If you don’t win, I, Old Fan, will cut off my head and use it as a stool for you to sit on!"
He strode up to Yang Liuqing, knelt down on one knee, and said loudly: "Your Highness, the last general of the more than 2,000 defenders in Cangzhou has been captured. We have twenty-three wounded, no serious injuries, no deaths in battle!"
In this level of fighting, only more than 20 people were slightly injured, which is already a mythical result. However, considering the situation of the raid and the gap in equipment, two of the four captains were incited to rebel before.
The guard general and the other two captains were captured, causing the Cangzhou garrison to run into chaos without any command - this result is nothing to brag about.
The thunder and fire outside the city had stopped long ago, but inside Cangzhou City, almost no one was sleeping.
Both ordinary people and gentry families had closed their doors and looked at the teams rushing through the streets through the cracks in their doors, with worries and panic on their faces.
They have been rooted in Cangzhou for many years, how could they not know what this means? They have seen this scene too many times.
Someone broke down the city gate and occupied the governor's office. Cangzhou is about to change again!
After dawn tomorrow, this Cangzhou will no longer be the Cangzhou it is today.
They don’t know who destroyed the city, nor how those people will treat the people in Cangzhou City, nor what their future will be like...
But one thing is beyond doubt.
Tonight, no one in Cangzhou City will be able to sleep peacefully.
Wei Liang, Chen Qing, Fan Qiao and others also stayed up all night. They were busy dealing with the mess and harvesting the fruits of victory. After completely taking over Cangzhou, there were still more things to be busy with.
Governing Cangzhou, expanding the army, repairing the city walls, and resisting foreign enemies that may appear at any time...
Taking the state capital is only the first step, the first small step, in the great undertaking they are about to undertake.
…
As soon as it got dark, people who had been up all night saw through the cracks in their doors that some people were posting something on the streets. What surprised them was that among these people, there were actually neighbors they knew.
Watching these people walking around, someone finally couldn't help it, opened the door of his house a small crack, and whispered to the person who was posting a notice at the street: "Hey, Zhang Dapao, what are you doing? Do you dare to go out at this time?"
, you don’t want your life!”
A man posted the notice on the street, jumped up and patted it hard, and then turned around, looked at him, and said in surprise: "Why don't you die? I put up the notice, and no one is in the way."
It’s not illegal to touch anyone…”
"What notice did you put up?" The man opened the door wider and asked doubtfully: "Aren't you afraid that the people who came into the city yesterday will arrest you? I saw from the window last night that they even arrested the governor!
"
The man named Zhang Dapao grinned and said: "Catch me, hey, you don't know who tied the rope on the governor's body yesterday!"
The man opened the door wider and asked doubtfully: "What does it have to do with you? Could it be that you tied me up?"
"To tell you the truth, I watched the brother next to me tie the rope on the governor's body yesterday!"
Zhang Dapao said with some regret: "Hey, if I hadn't been busy tying up another dog officer yesterday, this good thing would have happened to me..."
"What do you mean?" The man walked out of the house, looked at Zhang Dapao, and asked in surprise: "Did you also join the rebellion? Who was the one who came in last night?"
"What kind of rebellion!" Zhang Dapao waved his hand and said dissatisfied: "I tell you, the one who rebelled is the current Dog Emperor. He killed his father and his eldest brother to rebel. We followed Her Royal Highness to put down the rebellion. You don't understand.
Just stop talking nonsense!"
"What did you say?" The man was startled and asked: "You said it was Her Royal Highness the Princess who called in last night, and Princess Duanrong is back again?"
Zhang Dapao nodded and said: "That's not true. Otherwise, I'd be full early in the morning and have nothing to do. Why would I post this?"
The man looked at the notice and asked, "What does it say?"
"I don't know what he wrote..." Zhang Dapao scratched his head and said: "However, I heard them say that His Highness is recruiting people to build the city wall and take care of food and money. If you follow His Highness to put down the rebellion, join the revolution, and establish
You can still get a share of the land for your military exploits when you come back!"
When the man was stunned, Zhang Dapao stuffed a stack of notices into his hand and said, "Don't be stunned. If you have nothing to do, help me finish posting these. I'll treat you to dinner at noon..."
At this time, in the streets and alleys of Cangzhou City, someone was holding a big paper tube in his hand, walking through the streets and alleys, shouting all the way.
"We're recruiting, we're recruiting, we're building the city wall at the south gate. We're going to pay ten cents a day, and we'll pay you every day, and we'll provide you with two meals. If you're interested, go to the government office to sign up. The number of people is limited, first come, first served..."
"Recruiting troops, recruiting troops, Your Highness the Princess is recruiting troops. Join the army today, get paid tomorrow, and get land in the future!"
…
The people were hiding at home and could not see the notices, but they could understand people's words.
They looked shocked. The person who broke into the city last night was actually Princess Duanrong?
Her Highness the Princess is back again?
They say the destined one is coming soon, could it be Her Royal Highness?
Yes, it must be the case. When Princess Duanrong was born, she was guarded by a phoenix. Even the stars in the sky said that she was not the fate of ordinary people, but was blessed by God - isn't she the destined person!
They don't trust the government or anyone, but they trust the princess.
They look forward to the stars and the moon every day, just looking forward to this day, looking forward to Her Highness the Princess coming back to rescue them...
An old man opened the door, walked to the street, stopped a soldier holding a paper tube, and asked in a trembling voice: "Is Her Royal Highness the princess back?"
The soldier nodded.
The old man sat on the ground, with tears streaming down his face, and cried: "His Highness is back, we finally waited until His Highness came back!"
More and more people came out of their homes and took to the streets, reading the notices posted in the city and checking each other's eyes.
The whole city was boiling at this moment.
The whole state rejoices!
"His Highness is back, Your Highness is finally back. Our hard days are coming to an end!"
"It turns out that Your Highness is the person of destiny. It turns out that the person of destiny mentioned by the Queen is Her Royal Highness the Princess!"
"I want to join the army, and I want to conquer the world with His Highness. Even God has said that His Highness is destined to be the emperor, and he will definitely succeed!"
"I still have an old mother at home, so I can't follow His Highness. I plan to sign up to build the city wall and make it thicker so that no one can break in!"
…
Overnight, the Cangzhou Governor's Mansion has been transformed into the Princess Mansion, which is also the temporary headquarters of the revolutionary army.
In front of the princess's mansion, the people of Cangzhou gathered so many people that it was impossible to see them all.
An old lady with a stooped body was carrying a basket and said: "Master, I am not going to see Her Highness the Princess. The old woman dare not disturb Her Highness. This basket of eggs was laid by the old hen at home. Please help me get it."
Go in, the old woman doesn’t have the strength to build the city wall, nor does she have the strength to fight. This is a small kindness to replenish the health of the soldiers..."
A strong man carried half a fan of pork on his back and placed it on the doorstep. He said, "These meats are for the soldiers. I will no longer sell meat. I will join the army tomorrow!"
"These pieces of cloth are used to make clothes for the soldiers..."
"These two fish were caught yesterday, and I can't get anything out. Just be careful..."
…
The crowd moved forward step by step consciously. People said a word or two, or simply said nothing, put down their things, and turned around to leave.
"What the people want, destiny is..." Li Yi and Miss Liu Er sat side by side on the roof, patted her thigh, pointed to the crowd below, and sighed: "Do you see, this is the real destiny
