Chapter 284 Zhao Zhu dies!
"Everyone in the town was drafted away and sent to the military camp. They said they were going to fight Beiliang."
"In my opinion, they are all going to die. Beiliang is so powerful! It is said that the King of Pingnan is the prince of Beiliang, Xu Ping'an, and he is not afraid of even the gods in heaven. Tell me, what can we mortals do? We will only turn into a pile of yellow earth in a year."
"Hey, we can't control our own destiny. If we don't go, we will die."
"Our town used to be very lively, but now, most of the people have left. Only the elderly and children, and a few rich people are left. It's empty now."
Xu Ping'an was stunned.
Zhao Zhu and others are really cruel.
It seems that they really want to fight a decisive battle with Beiliang, but is such a victory really worth it for Southern Xinjiang?
If you lose.
Such southern Xinjiang.
Once it falls into the hands of Beiliang, it will be rebuilt again.
Is it still meaningful to have such a southern Xinjiang if we can achieve it?
Xu Ping'an didn't say much, but drank and ordered another plate of mutton.
And at this time.
The guests in the tavern were talking about each other.
"This time it's over."
"How powerful is Beiliang! Have you heard? The King of Pingnan has gone south and has entered the southern border. I also want to go and see what kind of existence this is."
"I've also heard that this guy is very powerful. Even the immortals in the sky don't dare to confront him head-on."
"I was also present at the battle in Tai'an City. Although I only watched it from a distance, I still cannot forget the shock I felt."
"I was there too. The entire Tai'an City was turned into a wasteland, with potholes everywhere. It was truly terrifying."
"Haha, what on earth is Zhao Zhu thinking? He actually wants to fight against such a powerful being. Isn't this like taking the lives of all the people in Southern Xinjiang and going to fight against Northern Liang to die?"
"The latest news is that the reason why the prince of Nanjiang was able to do this is because there is a master behind the scenes directing him."
"who?"
"It seems that they are talking about Yuan Qingshan, the leader of Beimang Daode Sect. This person is also very powerful. His cultivation is unknown, but he must be a powerful character."
"I have also heard that this Yuan Qingshan is a being that can be compared to the Northern Mang Tuoba Bodhisattva. Even Wang Xianzhi is not afraid of him. He also has the strength of a celestial immortal."
"Is that so? No wonder our Prince of Southern Xinjiang is so confident."
"Could it be that we in Southern Xinjiang still have a chance? If we can really defeat the Prince of Beiliang, perhaps the world of Liyang will belong to Zhao Zhu, and he will also be the new emperor, which is not bad."
"Yes, during the years when Zhao Bing and his son were kings in our southern border, they did a lot of good things, and we lived a peaceful life. It would not be a bad thing for us if such a person became emperor. On the other hand, the King of Pingnan is a powerful being. Can he really let us live well?"
"..."
Xu Ping'an was drinking and eating mutton.
It turns out that these people in southern Xinjiang are still fantasizing about defeating the Northern Liang army.
at this time.
A man had walked in slowly, with a frustrated look on his face.
Everyone looked over and was shocked.
One of them recognized the man, Wang Erniu from the east end of the town who was going to join the southern Xinjiang army.
Wang Erniu originally wanted to get money.
Because there are too many people in his family.
The family is very poor.
three months ago.
This person joined the army. At first, the Southern Xinjiang Army gave a lot of money, but later those who were conscripted didn't even have any money.
"Erniu, why are you back?" One of the people he knew walked up and asked in confusion.
"There is no war to fight, why don't you come back? We have already lost! Southern Xinjiang is now controlled by Beiliang, but we haven't been affected yet." Wang Erniu saw that it was a partner he knew, and he rolled his eyes at the man and said.
As soon as these words came out.
There was immediately a heated discussion.
Someone also pulled Wang Erniu to the table to chat about the outcome of the war between Beiliang and Southern Xinjiang.
Xu Ping'an also glanced at Wang Erniu.
After Wang Erniu drank a few bowls of wine, he immediately started talking nonstop, recounting his experiences on the battlefield.
There was warm applause from time to time.
Wang Erniu's story became more and more exciting.
In particular, it tells that in order to stop the Northern Liang army from advancing southward, Zhao Zhu actually ordered women to stand on the city wall.
This scene.
The scene was quiet.
You can hear the needle drop.
One of them said angrily:
"This prince is so confused!"
"How could it be such a person?"
"How can we let children and women..."
Wang Erniu chuckled and said, "Nothing is impossible. He can do anything, but we just don't know it."
"I saw it with my own eyes. The prince killed people, drank alcohol, and whipped soldiers. It has become a common occurrence."
“It’s really a little unbelievable.”
Everyone at this moment.
There was no cheering, just silence.
One of them cursed:
"thug!"
"Shameless!"
"I misjudged him before."
After saying this, the whole person fell silent.
The others were also silent.
"Ah... I didn't expect that Zhao Bing died. Zhao Bing died, and Zhao Zhu became like this? Could it be because Zhao Bing was here before and had been suppressing Zhao Zhu?"
"Southern Xinjiang is finished, and I don't know what attitude Northern Liang will take towards us next!"
"We are just ordinary people. We should worry about the rich and powerful people."
"I think it's an opportunity to reshuffle the cards. There will be many more opportunities in southern Xinjiang. After all, we ordinary people are still suffering. No matter who comes, we are still at the bottom."
"Yes, let's see how Beiliang will deal with our Southern Xinjiang."
"..."
Everyone discussed for a while.
Wang Erniu suddenly said:
"I don't think there's any need to worry. The Northern Liang army takes good care of the people in every city they conquer when they march south."
"There has never been any massacre or abuse of civilians."
The words fell.
Everyone was silent again.
Even Xu Ping'an, who was sitting on the side, had a smug smile on his face.
Li Jing has always had his own way of leading troops in battle.
One of them frowned and asked:
"According to what you said, there seems to be some discrepancy between what we heard."
Another person sneered and said, "We just heard what those young masters said. They ran away as soon as they said that to us."
"what?"
"You do not know?"
"Damn it, I didn't expect these bastards to actually lie to us."
"Haha, these people are all trying to survive. Let's just worry about our own situation and not leave anything to chance."
"That's right. Alas, I never expected that our Southern Xinjiang army would be completely defeated by the Northern Liang army."
-----------------
When Xu Ping'an appeared in another city again, a battle was taking place there.
The two armies are fighting fiercely.
Inside the city was Zhao Zhu's army, and outside the city was Li Jing's army.
The momentum is overwhelming.
The entire city was captured in just one hour.
Suddenly someone shouted:
"Zhao Zhu is dead!"
