Chapter 235: Hit the door! (big chapter)(1/2)
Although Northern Meng also divides regions by states, its management method is very different from that of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
For example, in Datuzhou, there is no magistrate here, there is only one Datu City lord, and the city lord is only responsible for all matters in Datu City. Because most of the outside of the city are nomadic people and have strong mobility, they are under the jurisdiction of different regions.
In some places, the herdsmen will be under the jurisdiction of wherever they go.
In Northern Mongolia, the hierarchy is very clear and nepotism is used to allow the nobles to enjoy life, while most people are slaves and live in dire straits. The only way for civilians to cross the hierarchy is to obtain military merits.
The city lords in each state are naturally beautiful.
The city lord of Datu City is average, but he has some relationship with the uncle and the uncle's uncle's nephew of an aunt, the son of Ergu, so he climbed up to become the city lord.
When Sirat was doing business in Datu City, he naturally had to curry favor with this person.
Just yesterday, Silatwugang respected Edun's 30,000 taels of silver notes, and Edun agreed to send 300 soldiers holding crossbows to protect Silatwu in close proximity.
At noon, the three hundred soldiers of the palace were in place, each holding a bow and crossbow, which was quite imposing. In addition, the 200 people from the Silatu Guards gathered a total of 500 people.
With five hundred armed forces in the city, he could walk sideways, and no one dared to bother.
Silat sat in the mansion and closed his eyes to rest. He was also waiting. If the people who had robbed Liu Qing dared to cause trouble tonight, he would let them all be in different places.
At night.
The outer courtyard of Thira was surrounded by two hundred people from the escort team.
In the inner courtyard, three hundred soldiers holding crossbows surrounded the inner house where Silatu lived.
Inside and outside the house, it is like an iron barrel.
If you don’t know, you thought it was putting Silat in house arrest!
Silat also held a banquet in the inner house, allowing the concubines to sing and dance, while he started to eat and drink.
He felt that even if the war gods of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Yang Hong and Shen Tuyi, came, they would not dare to break into his mansion.
Soon, waves of desolate sounds came from the house.
An hour later, the moonlight was dim and the leaves around began to shake.
Shunliu appeared on a big tree about a hundred meters away from the Silatwu house. He bit a weed in his mouth and observed the Tilat Mansion for a while. After turning his eyes, he said to the man in black behind him: "Give orders. In a quarter of an hour, we are ready to attack. We all use crossbows to find their respective positions. Within ten breaths, we will kill all the 200 soldiers in the outer courtyard!"
"Yes, captain!" the man whispered.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Soon, a hundred Dragon Guard soldiers found a place suitable for firing crossbows and hid them.
It would be enough to deal with these minions to dispatch a hundred Dragon Guards.
A quarter of an hour later, a faint smile appeared on Shunliu's face.
Then he held a crossbow in his hand and shot at a guard at the door in an instant.
Whoosh!
The arrow was sharp and instantly shot through the guard's head.
At the same time, hundreds of arrows were fired at once.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The 200 guards patrolling guards on guard in the outer courtyard of Thira Mansion were all shot in the middle of their heads and fell to the ground.
"Enter the outer courtyard!" Shunliu waved a gesture and whispered.
At this moment, several patrolling soldiers in Datu City heard the sound and rushed to the gate of the outer courtyard. When they saw that all the guards were dead, they were shocked.
"There are assassins! There are assassins! There are assassins!" one man shouted.
In almost the blink of an eye, three hundred soldiers in the palace, holding weapons and crossbows, all surrounded the house where Silatu lived.
Hearing the movement, Silat ran out of the house and asked in horror: "Where is the assassin?"
A soldier from the palace said: "Master Thira, this wave of assassins is extraordinary. Just now, in less than ten breaths, all your 200 guards were killed. This group of people have very powerful crossbows!"
Silatu's legs trembled a little and said, "Brothers, I... my life depends on you. You must catch a living person and let the city lord take a good trial!"
The soldiers of the palace nodded and looked around vigilantly.
Silatwu ran quickly towards the house.
At present, the safest room is the house.
At this moment, Shunliu took advantage of the faint moonlight to wipe the crossbow in his hand and said to the young man beside him: "Old Eight, if we kill all these 300 people, leaving only Silatu, and then tell him, will it be more fun to take his life tomorrow night? Did Your Majesty once said that when a person is most afraid and uncomfortable, it is not when he dies, but when he knows that he is about to die."
"Haha, boss, you're still bad. I think it's possible. This can also show the ability of our Dragon Guards, making those Northern Mongolian people who want to use force frightened."
"Okay, there are three of us, and no one is allowed to kill more than three!"
"no problem!"
In the eyes of the Dragon Guard soldiers, the three hundred people were like targets they often trained, and had no attack power at all.
A long-range attack is enough to destroy everyone.
Ten breaths later, one hundred Dragon Guard soldiers were ready. The three hundred palace soldiers, holding various weapons, surrounded the house of Silatu, and looked at everything around them with a cautious look on their faces. They had no idea how many opponents were, nor where the opponent was, so they did not launch any attack.
Whoosh!
This time, Shunliu shot a rocket and pointed directly at a soldier among the soldiers who looked like the leader.
Bang!
The archery technique was accurate and directly penetrated the soldier's head.
At the same time, a rain of arrows hit again.
The soldiers of the palace almost shot out the soul by the first arrow, and when they were confused, half of the soldiers of the palace had already fallen.
They were holding crossbows in their hands, but they could not find the enemy at this moment, and their hands were trembling, and they were not able to use them anymore.
The remaining soldiers fled everywhere, and some even wanted to drill into the room, but the long arrows shot out of the crossbow seemed to have eyes, and they aimed accurately at his head.
Almost a moment, all three hundred soldiers in the palace fell to the ground, and none of them survived.
After doing all this, Shunliu said loudly: "Silatwu, I will kill you tomorrow night, wait obediently!"
After saying that, Shun Liu took people away.
The servants and maids in the ear rooms around the Thira Mansion naturally heard the screams of the shots, but none of them dared to come out.
Silat heard Shun Liu clearly, but he still didn't dare to move. He lay on the crack of the door and looked around. It was not until half an hour later that he pushed a concubine, let him walk in front and then walked out vigilantly.
There was a strong smell of blood in the yard.
Seeing this, the concubine immediately squatted aside and vomited.
Silatu hid behind the door again, observed it, and let out a long sigh. Then he closed the door again.
Silat was covered in cold sweat and sat behind the door. He waited until dawn before he stood up, then ran outside, shouting, "I have killed someone, I have killed someone from Beimeng when I come to Dazhou!"
He was messy and even barefoot, running wildly on the street towards the city lord's mansion.
He felt that the only place and convenience in the entire Datu City was the City Lord's Mansion.
Soon, the murder of 200 guards and 300 soldiers in the Thira Mansion spread throughout the streets and alleys.
"I heard that it was Shirat who seized the Daqing Library of the Great Zhou, so the people of the Great Zhou came to take revenge!"
"Is the murderer who killed last night a human? I heard that those guards and the soldiers were killed by one arrow, and they were still shot in the head. This is really terrible. Most of the soldiers in my North Mongolia can't do this!"
"No... I won't fight again. I heard that the Great Zhou is very powerful now. If I am defeated in Beimeng, we will not become slaves to the Great Zhou people!"
...
There was a lot of discussion on the streets and alleys, which caused great panic.
Some people with a little money and property started to drag their families to leave Datu City!
And at this moment, in the city lord's mansion.
Silat sat down with a sad face and sat next to a middle-aged man with seven or eight braids with a big head but a small nose and eyes.
This man is the city lord of Datu City.
"Lord Edun City, you must bring those murderers to justice. The people of the Great Zhou are really too damning. I didn't kill me yesterday to show off my abilities. They felt that they could come to Datu City freely and lawless."
Edun frowned slightly and said, "I have ordered the city to be closed down. There are 5,000 elite soldiers inside and outside Mydatu City. That group of thieves should have a hundred people, because if the scale is larger, it is impossible to enter Mydatu City. Although they are good at archery, once the crossbow has no arrows, the effect is not as good as a kitchen knife."
"Tonight, you can stay in the city lord's mansion, and there will be 1,500 soldiers guarding them from all over the country. These soldiers have been on the battlefield, and one person is enough to meet ten people. If those thieves come, the city lord will let them die here. If they dare not come, even if the city lord turns over Datu City, he will find them!"
"It's really outrageous. If this matter reaches the ears of the general, how can I have the face to be the lord of this city!"
Silat nodded constantly and felt a little better. He didn't believe that those people could break into the city lord's mansion and kill him.
At night, torches were erected within 300 meters of the city lord's mansion.
Five hundred cavalrymen held sabers and guarded two alleys respectively. Once thieves attacked, they could quickly surround them.
In the City Lord's Mansion, the soldiers were even wearing armor and kept walking to patrol the City Lord's Mansion, not even letting go of any movement.
Edun also took Tyrat to inspect it.
"Silatwu, see if it is not. With my government soldiers, even if there are five thousand soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty who want to attack, it will be difficult to enter the inner courtyard in a short period of time, let alone just a hundred and ten thieves from the Great Zhou Dynasty. Tonight, they will not dare to come. If the city lord finds out tomorrow, they will definitely kill them immediately to promote the power of the Northern Meng.
