There were sixteen or seven soldiers of the Southern Jin Dynasty who insulted the people of Darong in the land of Darong. There were hundreds of people confronting them, but in their eyes they were like a nest of ants, with nothing to fear.
As the two sides pulled each other, the leader's eyes became brighter and brighter, revealing a hint of madness.
"We Darong people are not cattle and sheep, and we will not let you slaughter them at will!" The old man rushed forward, raised his arms and shouted, "Let them go! Let them go!"
The remaining people responded one after another, "Let them go! Let them go!"
"General Shangguan, let's... let him go," one of his subordinates advised.
"What, are you scared?"
"General Mo issued an order the day before yesterday that the officers and soldiers in the army should no longer kill the people in the city. If he finds out, we will be severely punished."
"My brother is dead, and I feel unhappy. That woman is from Da Rong, so I want to kill Da Rong to relieve my anger!"
"General..."
The leader's face darkened, then he pulled out the knife in his hand, strode forward, and before everyone could react, stabbed the old man who was raising his arms and shouting.
The knife was sharp and accurate, hitting the vital point directly. The old man spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground dead.

Yan Mu also didn't react in time and didn't go up to save the old man in time!
Seeing this scene, the people became even more excited and rushed forward in a swarm, and the two sides immediately fell into a melee. Although the opponent was a soldier with powerful martial arts skills, there were many people and they surrounded them.
Instead, Yan Mu was pushed aside. While he was breathing, he saw the people who had been hiding at home rushing out with kitchen knives, hoes and sticks. Among them were elderly people who were over seventy years old, and children who were several years old. After being oppressed for so long, they finally broke out.
The streets were in chaos, and everyone was shouting to fight out of the city. After dealing with the dozen or so Southern Jin soldiers, they all headed towards the city gate. Yan Mu wanted to stop him, but no one listened to him.
When they arrived in front of the city gate, they were already in full formation on the city tower. Thousands of soldiers had their bows and arrows fully drawn, and they were just waiting for an order to be fired at the crowd. The city gate was closed, and there were rows of Southern Jin soldiers standing in front of the gate, holding long swords. Their faces looked ruthless, like wolves eager to kill their prey.
The people were a little timid and subconsciously stepped back. Then the road was cut off. Thousands of soldiers blocked the road. Not even humans, not even flies, could fly out.
These soldiers of the Southern Jin Dynasty were wearing armor, glowing coldly under the dim winter sun. They stood side by side, as if they had formed a wall of copper and iron, which was impossible to break through.
After being impulsive, the people calmed down now, and they all gathered together, with fear on their faces.
On top of the city tower, King Hu Cheng took Su Ruqing up and stood on the city wall to look down.
King Hucheng narrowed his eyes, "What happened to General Shangguan and those soldiers of the Southern Jin Dynasty?"
The first general waved his hand downwards, and then a dozen wooden boards were carried over and placed under the tower. These people had been beaten with fists, stepped on, chopped with knives and chopped with axes to a state of disgrace, they were more like a puddle of meat.
King Hu Cheng's face suddenly darkened, "A bunch of untouchables dare to hurt my soldiers of the Southern Jin Dynasty!"
Su Ruqing pursed her lips and said, "They killed people indiscriminately and aroused public anger. Who is responsible? It is clearly their sin first."
King Hu Cheng turned around and glared at Su Ruqing with a murderous look. Su Ruqing shrank her neck, then touched her belly, reminding King Hu Cheng that she was pregnant with his child.
King Hu Cheng turned his head and looked at the dough forming a big ball. He estimated that there were thousands of people. He squinted his eyes and said, "I should have burned them all and killed them all when we entered the city that day. We are indeed too merciful."
"Your Highness, what should we do with these untouchables?"
"Kill! Leave no one behind!"
Hearing this, the deputy general was stunned for a moment.
"No, they are all innocent people..."
As soon as Su Ruqing opened her mouth, King Hu Cheng glared at her, "You are not qualified to plead for them!"
Su Ruqing gritted her teeth, "Does Your Highness want this Ling'an City to turn into a river of blood? Aren't you afraid of being reviled by the world?"
"People in the world have to shut up in the face of absolute power!"
"you!"
"We, the Southern Jin people, are born noble. It is extremely abominable that these untouchables dare to kill them. If one of us dies, hundreds of honorable people will be buried with him!"
As King Hu Cheng raised his hand, all the archers and soldiers holding long swords were ready.
Yan Mu frowned. This Tiger King was violent and arrogant. He would really kill these people. Even if he stood up, he wouldn't be able to stop them.
But I have to give it a try. Thinking like this, Yan Mu took a step forward. However, at this time, the situation on the tower was reversed. Su Ruqing put the knife against Hu Chengwang's neck with a tough expression.
"If you don't want to die, order the city gates to be opened and let these people out of the city!" she whispered.
King Hu Cheng looked gloomy, "You are looking for death!"
King Hu Cheng stepped back suddenly and tried to knock the knife out of Su Ruqing's hand. However, Su Ruqing moved faster. The two greeted each other twice, and the knife was pressed against King Hu Cheng's neck again.
His face became darker, "You actually know kung fu!"
"Women from Da Rong are not easy to bully!"
As she spoke, Su Ruqing narrowed her eyes, and the sharp blade in her hand cut the skin on the man's neck, and blood dropped drop by drop.
Seeing this, the surrounding soldiers were frightened and gathered around.
Seeing this, the people below, who had scolded Su Ruqing before, were now worried about her.
"Miss Su is here to save us!"
"She is such a strong-willed little girl, we can't be weak either!"
"Yes, we can't let her fight these wolves alone!"
The common people raised their weapons one after another and confronted the soldiers of the Southern Jin Dynasty.
"Even if we die, we can't die cowardly!"
"Our homeland cannot be trampled by outsiders!"
The people shouted slogans and cheered each other up.
Seeing this scene, Yan Mu took a deep breath. Who said that Da Rong people have no backbone? The most important thing for Da Rong people is backbone!
He flew to the city gate, stood in front of the people, and looked up at King Hu Cheng.
"King Hu Cheng, it was you of the Southern Jin Dynasty who invited me to negotiate peace with Da Rong. Now you are killing the people of our court indiscriminately. It is obvious that you have no sincerity at all. In this case, let's just stop talking. Let's fight each other according to our abilities!" Yan Mu said loudly .
King Hu Cheng lowered his head to look at Yan Mu and frowned, "Who are you?"
"Prince Daerong!"
Yan Mu revealed his identity, and there were gasps everywhere.
Su Ruqing was also surprised. She didn't expect the prince to go deep into Ling'an City.
"Oh, you said you were Prince Darong, but I also said you were a fake! All generals will obey the order and shoot this thief with evil intentions!"
"You dare!" The knife in Su Ruqing's hand pushed in further.
Seeing this, the deputy general quickly raised his hand: "Don't fire the arrow!"
King Hu Cheng gritted his teeth and said, "Su Rumeng, this king treats you well, right?"
"You have never treated me as a human being, and you actually said you treat me well! And even if you treat me with all your heart, so what, you killed so many innocent people in our Da Rong, and I am still a Da Rong person. I am incompatible with you, so kill him quickly!"
"You!" King Hu Cheng gritted his teeth, "You are still pregnant with my child!"
"Don't worry, when I kill you, I will let him be buried with you!"
