Tongcheng has been sealed. On the day when the city was founded and massacred, Duanmu Anguo's 100,000 soldiers arrived one after another, carrying a mysterious thing with them, and began to intensify their deployment outside the city.
No one knew what those things were. They only saw the soldiers digging the ground like plowing fields, and then buried those things in them. Then they closed the city gate and no one in the city was allowed to leave. , a checkpoint was also set up five miles outside the city, and no one could get closer.
At that time, the news that Jiancheng was massacred had not yet reached Tongcheng, and the news that there was a problem with the well water in Jiancheng had not yet reached Tongcheng. People only knew that Zong Sui and Dashun were at war, and the city was closed to ensure safety. Their safety was not a surprise, nor was there too much resistance. Although life has become no longer convenient, life is more important than suffering from the turmoil of war.
But it only lasted a few days, but somehow, even if the city gate was closed, the news of the city's construction still spread to Tongcheng.
This caused an uproar in Tongcheng. For a time, the horror of the massacre spread throughout Tongcheng and became a must-talk topic for everyone. Soon, the massacre of the city had not yet dissipated, and the news spread that Duanmu Anguo had thrown corpses into the well water, setting off another wave of panic while people were still in shock.
The people did not dare to drink the water from the well, but they could not die of thirst. Many people thought of the big river outside the city. The river flowing from south to north was wide and deep. The water was extremely clear. The people of Tongcheng I always go to the river to drink water in the summer. You can drink the water when you scoop it up, as sweet as a mountain spring.
River water is living water. Doctors from medical clinics tell everyone that flowing living water cannot contain poison. Even if it is poisoned, it doesn't matter. It will soon disperse with the flow and lose its toxicity. So people wanted to go to the big river outside the city to fetch water for drinking. Some wealthy families directly connected their cars with many large wooden barrels on the cars, preparing to transport water to their homes one by one.
However, Tongcheng is closed and no one can get out. Duanmu Anguo's 100,000 soldiers personally guarded the city, evacuating all the original Tongcheng defenders. The people could not get out of the city and were so angry that they cursed Duanmu Anguo, but the soldiers acted as if they had not heard and guarded the city gate and refused to open it.
The people were helpless and gathered at the gate of Zhizhou Mansion to beat drums and ask for help.
Zhizhou Tianping has also been worried about the water source in recent days. He personally went to negotiate with Duanmu Anguo's soldiers several times, but unfortunately they all came back without success. Now that the people were angered and surrounded the Zhizhou Mansion, Tian Ping had no choice but to face the soldiers again.
This time, Tian Ping was also angry. Because the people in Zhizhou Prefecture also dare not drink the water from the well. After all, the thought of the horror of the scattered corpses is more terrifying than the poisonous medicine. Even if the soldiers guarantee that there is really no well water in Tongcheng, People are still worried about any problem.
Tian Ping pointed at the leading lieutenant and shouted angrily: "Since the well water is fine, well, you soldiers will go test the water first. You will have to take a sip from every well in the city. If you drink it, there will be no problem. , only the people of Tongcheng dare to drink!" He was so angry that his hands trembled, and he couldn't help but say a few more words: "The 300,000 people who built the city! They were all harmed by you! And the 200,000 troops, not a single one of them You couldn't escape the vicious hands of Duanmu Anguo, why are you so cruel? Since all the people are required to be soldiers, why don't your people drink? Why only let Zong Sui's people drink?"
The deputy general snorted coldly, looked at Na Tianping and said: "Master Zhizhou, you should ask our general if you want to ask this, but it is useless to blame General Mo. But then again, you are just hearsay, Jiancheng The people were massacred by Dashun. What does it have to do with our general? Who can prove that we adults were drugged in advance?" Humph! There was no one left in the entire city, and the corpses were all burned by Xuan Tianming, leaving no evidence of death.
Tian Ping glared at the deputy general, but was speechless. Indeed, the news was all hearsay, and they couldn't tell who was the first person to spread the news. In short, it spread throughout the city overnight. Now that I think about it carefully, it seems like Someone did it on purpose.
But no matter what, the news has been known to everyone. In order to calm the panic among the people and avoid causing greater riots, Tian Ping knew that he must force these soldiers to test the water in person to ensure that, otherwise, Tongcheng would be in trouble. .
The soldiers had no choice. Tian Ping was a local official after all, and with so many people speaking out collectively, they did not want to cause trouble before Duanmu Anguo arrived. The water in the left and right wells was fine, so they followed Tian Ping's instructions and led the army to drink a few sips of the water from each well. Seeing that the people dared to drink from them, and they were fine after drinking, they stopped making noises about leaving the city and continued drinking from the city. of water source.
Duanmu Anguo arrived in Tongcheng within a few days, and the people scorned him. It was not as glorious as when he arrived to build the city. Not only did no one warmly welcome him, some even pointed at him and cursed him. But Duanmu Anguo didn't care. He just wanted to use this Tongcheng to complete his plan against Xuan Tianming and Feng Yuheng. He didn't care what these people thought. Once he won this battle, these people could follow him. He would never let Tongcheng continue to exist intact after Dashun was destroyed.
This time, Duanmu Anguo did not live in Zhizhou Mansion, but chose another residence. That house was originally the residence of one of his soldiers who was hiding in Tongcheng. It was not only a courtyard with three entrances and three exits on the surface, but also numerous underground secret pavilions. Duanmu Anguo was very safe living in it. Not only could outsiders not find it, Even one of our own people had no idea which secret pavilion or tunnel the Duanmu Anguo people were in before they got a definite answer.
Just like Jiang Cheng Zuo Da said, he is like a mouse. Feng Yuheng’s defense has reached a perverted level. Even when he sleeps, he must leave at least ten secret guards to protect him, otherwise Uneasy.
Actually, Duanmu Anguo himself doesn’t understand why he is so afraid. Even if Feng Yuheng has some abilities, at most he only has better Qinggong. But even if he is so good that people say he is invisible, he still can’t break through the wall, right? Why was he so scared that he locked himself in a basement with no windows? In this regard, he asked himself many times and persuaded himself many times, but there was no way to convince himself to live in a house on the ground.
Tian Ping was summoned the day after Duanmu Guoan entered the city. He stood in front of Duanmu Anguo with no energy. He was not as flattering as Zuo Da, and he didn't even have the slightest hint of condescension. He just said to Duanmu Anguo: "I will not participate in the war. There are one hundred thousand troops in Tongcheng. They are all at your disposal according to the emperor's order. But please Duanmu, please don't harm the people of Tongcheng. Otherwise, I will risk my life not to do it." , we must lead the people in the city to fight against the adults to the end!"
Duanmu Anguo laughed loudly after hearing this. In his opinion, Tian Ping was just a small magistrate, so he dared to say such big things? He didn't take such a small official seriously at all, and only told Tian Ping: "This general will convey Tian Zhizhou's words intact to the emperor."
"It's up to you." Tian Ping waved his hand and snorted coldly: "Your grievances couldn't be resolved in Dashun, so you brought them to Zong Sui. You, a Dashun person, actually brought such trouble to Zong Sui, Your Majesty If you don't wake up, then there is no point in being a disaster minister. If he wants to be demoted, just demote him, and if he wants to be killed, just kill him! However, Duanmu Anguo, I must remind you that Zong Sui is not just for you. If you have great ambitions, there is no reason to recruit people from Zong Sui to realize them for you. Bincheng is confused, Jiancheng is confused, but I, Tongcheng, are not confused at all. After Tongcheng, not every city can be at your mercy. Duanmu Anguo, You are so self-aware."
After Tian Ping finished speaking, he turned around and left, only to come back after walking a few circles. The tunnel was so complicated that he failed to successfully circumvent it based on the memory he had when he entered.
Duanmu Anguo burst into laughter after seeing this, pointed at Tian Ping and said: "You can't even get out of my territory, but you dare to speak boldly. Tian Zhizhou, you should be the one who knows your own way, follow me obediently Only by cooperation with this general can we keep the people of Tongcheng safe. Otherwise..."
"Otherwise, would you have given us that medicine? Duanmu Anguo, believe it or not, even if the people of Tongcheng really took that medicine, then our spearhead would be aimed at you, not Dashun. People in Tongcheng It’s very clear, we know who is the source of the harm.”
Duanmu Anguo really didn’t expect that the Sui Dynasty would have such a strong magistrate. Tian Ping made him meet a different local official, different from Bincheng and Jiancheng, and even different from those officials in Dashun. . He didn't like such officials, but now was not the time to get rid of Tian Ping. He would not kill Zong Sui's officials. Even if he wanted Na Tian Ping to die, he would have to rely on the help of Dashun people. Fortunately, that day was not far away. He smiled sinisterly, as long as Xuan Tianming's army came to attack, he was at least 80% sure that he could keep them all behind. As long as Dashun was gone without Xuan Tianming and Feng Yuheng, and seriously injured Xuan Tianhua, he didn't believe anyone else could be his opponent Duanmu Anguo.
Coming out of Duanmu Anguo's "rat" hole, Tian Ping returned to Zhizhou Mansion. As soon as he entered the mansion, he saw the housekeeper scolding a little girl. The little girl knelt on the ground and wiped her tears and said: "Steward Lin, it's all my fault. I didn't take good care of the lady. But steward, please don't drive me away. I still want to serve the lady. The lady cannot be without someone by my side." What a considerate person!"
The housekeeper was so angry that he stamped his feet: "I know that you have a deep love for the master and servant with the lady, but it is precisely because of this that I have to lecture you. The person that the lady trusts the most is you. If you can't even take care of her, how can you still Who is doing their best? Tongcheng has been in chaos recently. The master has been busy with official duties all day long. We servants must serve the master more carefully so that the master can worry less!" After he finished speaking, he said helplessly He helped the girl up again, "Okay, I just want to scare you. The lady loves you so much, how can I just say that I want to drive you away? Go and do the work! The doctor will come later and let him take care of you." Look, don’t fall anywhere.”
Tian Ping felt nervous and asked loudly: "Did Miss fall again?"
