Flying Clouds in Another World

Chapter 321 Soldiers, people are in turmoil, advise them to leave!

When Mo Rongluo heard that the camp was surrounded, he was naturally furious!

But whether it was himself, the warriors under his command, his wife, children or the elderly, they were all in the hands of others. No matter how angry Mo Rongluo was, he had to swallow his anger and agree.

The two sides exchanged personnel and supplies. More than half of the dozens of camps, large and small, completed the transaction. But in the end, problems arose between the two sides, leading to the re-emergence of war.

As a result, after a series of battles, the Aokong tribes were completely divided.

Tiankong Khan Morongluo continued to command the 17 direct lineages, which were said to have 150,000 soldiers.

The elected Eagle King Khan Fu Jian led 15 tribes and claimed to have 130,000 soldiers, and competed with Morongluo.

Among the numerous tribes, no new Tianlang tribe was formed because no tribe dared to go to the shore of Tianlang Lake for the time being.

The original Tianlang tribe, also known as the Canglang tribe, although weak and seriously injured, but a lean camel is still bigger than a horse, and it still claims to have 200,000 soldiers.

The Black Wolf Tribe, which was originally the weakest core tribe, has now entered the top three in strength, and is tied with the Red Fox Tribe for second and third place, each claiming to have 100,000 soldiers.

As for other core tribes, each of them claimed to have tens of thousands of soldiers.

Even the revived Lone Wolf tribe claimed to have 30,000 soldiers.

In addition, during this month, the Yunhuang tribe, which was formed by the continuous merger and annexation of some weak tribes, emerged as a dark horse and developed rapidly, and was also said to have 20,000 soldiers.

Liu Feiyun looked at the latest situation map of the Northern Wasteland drawn based on various information, and couldn't help but sigh:

"A million soldiers! The barbarians still have a million soldiers! Did the great battle two months ago go in vain? Or maybe we are all just having a big dream!"

Zhuge Bulong laughed and said, "It's just a claim! Of course they have to bluff! For example, the Yunhuang tribe supported by the military commander only has 7,000 to 8,000 real soldiers. I think the situation of other tribes is similar!"

"But even if it's half, that's still 500,000 or 600,000!"

"A full armor is still armor, a half armor is still armor, and a broken armor is still armor! Besides, armor alone is not enough without a person!"

Zhuge Bulong began to count:

"Before the war, the Barbarians had a total of only 5 to 6 million people, and only 2 to 3 million men! Excluding the old, the weak, and the disabled, the young and strong would not exceed 2 million at most."

"Moreover, we cannot have all of these two million soldiers equipped with armor. We will have to deduct several hundred thousand people."

"Six or seven hundred thousand real combat soldiers were wiped out during the war, and there were also several hundred thousand auxiliary soldiers and other young and strong men. If we add the hundreds of thousands who were taken back to the empire, and the old, weak, women and children who died in the war, there are now at least two to three million fewer people in the Northern Wilderness than before."

"Among the remaining half, there are definitely no more than 600,000 young and strong men, and no more than 300,000 combat soldiers!"

"Haha! So, the saying of a million soldiers is just a joke!"

After laughing with Chaogui, he looked worried. He took a copy of the military intelligence report that had just been delivered and sighed:

"Alas! Compared to the Northern Wasteland, I am more worried about the rioters!"

"Now, among the 36 states of the empire, 21 states have seen riots with a scale of more than 10,000 people!"

"The total number of rioters has now exceeded one million! Even dozens of county towns and prefecture capitals have been occupied by the rioters!"

"Why! Why did so many rioters appear in just one month?"

When He Chaogui told Zhi that he was worried, he couldn't help but sigh again.

Liu Feiyun felt very uncomfortable:

Mob! I'm afraid it will soon turn into a mob!

If it were in another time and space, his textbooks would call these rebellious people the rebels! The rebels!

And his current identity is a government soldier, a government soldier who protects the corrupt empire!

Perhaps, in the future, I will have a new identity: a warlord! A warlord who controls a region.

The era of great chaos has finally begun.

However, it was somewhat different from what he had expected: the sons and grandsons of the dragon had not yet started fighting! The powerful nobles in the territory had not yet started making trouble! But the poor people at the bottom had rebelled first!

Perhaps, those poor people really can’t survive anymore and don’t want to endure it any longer!

And what should I do now?

I just hope that all my family members are well now!

And that girl! May she be well too!

Tiandu Changluo has been prosperous for a long time.

Although it has been heard that civil unrest has broken out in many states, the lives of the people in Tiandu, who live under the emperor's feet, do not seem to be affected at all.

The princes born to the two imperial concubines and the dukes born to several imperial concubines have all left the capital and gone to other states to establish their fiefdoms.

This was something no one had expected. Even the princes of the Crown Prince Party did not stay in the capital, but chose to go to other places to be vassal states.

It is better to be the head of a chicken than the tail of an ox.

Before the current emperor ascended the throne, he advocated the reduction of feudal lords, but in the end, on the first day of his reign, he appointed his seven brothers as princes. It must be said that this is a great irony.

However, the Enfeoffment Order, which was proposed by Liu Feiyun and approved by the late emperor, was not announced and implemented for some unknown reason.

At the moment, what annoys the emperor the most is that the increasingly severe civil unrest seems to be difficult to stop.

In the official newspaper that Liu Feiyun saw,

The civil unrest affected twenty-one states and involved more than one million people.

But the emperor was so kind that he saw a secret report that affected 31 states and the scale had exceeded 3 million! There were more than 200 county towns and prefectures that had been breached!

There was even a group of rioters, claiming to have three hundred thousand men, who actually headed for Jingzhou.

"Damn you rioters! You choose to cause trouble at this time! Can't you just be patient for a while? You have to ruin my plan!"

"If that's the case, don't blame me for being cruel! I'm going to send a large army to completely wipe you out!"

"And those local tyrants, you have your own private army, don't you? This time you have to use them to suppress the rioters! If you don't work hard, I will punish you, take away your power, and abolish your leadership!"

Once the emperor made up his mind, he immediately issued an edict to advertise it to the world, ignoring the dissuasion of a group of important ministers and insisting on going his own way.

In a secret room in Yunliu Pavilion, a girl of about sixteen or seventeen was holding a few pieces of paper and reading a few books, translating some urgent secret reports that had just been delivered.

Every time she translated a note, her brows furrowed a little.

After she finished translating everything, she threw the note into the brazier.

The young man beside her saw her frowning and couldn't help but ask, "Rui'er! Could it be that the damn doctor also confirmed the news?!"

"Brother Song Tao! That's right! It seems like I have to go to Green Willow Pavilion! Miss can't delay any longer! We have to leave immediately! Also, all of the young master's top-secret items must be destroyed immediately!"

"Where's that person!?"

"Except for the people from Fengyu Pavilion and Jiliu, all the people involved in the top-secret matter will also be evacuated! Also, I will ask the young lady to notify Liuxu's people."

"how about you?"

"Me!? I will naturally stay in Beijing and take charge of the situation!"

"But what if the chaos gets out of control? What about your safety? Isn't it okay for me to be in charge here?"

"Song Tao! You are so bold! The Master asked me to take charge of the overall situation in the capital! Do you want to take advantage of this opportunity to seize power?"

"Si Mingrui! I am worried about your safety! Power? Do I, Song Tao, really want it? Si Mingrui! Don't forget! You are just a cultivator! How can you protect yourself? You should go back to your hometown in Anping! To the young master! I will explain!"

"Brother Song Tao! I thank you for your kindness. But I really can't leave! If someone wants to hold me hostage, please help me!"

"You...you...you...! Sigh! In that case, I, Song Tao, swear! I will never let you, Si Mingrui, fall into the hands of the enemy, and I will never...let you...suffer any injustice!"

After saying this, Song Tao walked out of the secret room helplessly.

Si Mingrui bit her lips and remained silent.

In the Green Willow Pavilion, after listening to Si Mingrui's story, Liu Qianqian frowned and thought for a long time.

Seeing that she was still hesitating, Si Mingrui couldn't help but said anxiously:

"Miss! We really can't delay any longer! Although there are rioters everywhere now, with Sister Su and the other two protecting us, we can still return home safely!"

"If you hesitate any longer, I'm afraid it will be too late! Besides, you've been pregnant for several months. The longer you delay, the harder it will be to travel!"

"But the Green Willow Chamber of Commerce has such a huge mess that it's hard to deal with it just because we want to!"

"Miss! Don't worry about these things now! Only when you leave, the old master can concentrate on assisting the emperor! Besides, the safety of the old lady..."

"That's all! I'll leave tomorrow then! You stay here today, I have a lot to tell you!"
