The guards arrested two civilians and escorted them to Brother Longjin.
Long Jin glanced at him and asked sternly:
"What's going on in Tiancheng? Where are the guards here?"
"I do not know!"
When the two citizens saw Long Jinda, their voices trembled.
They woke up early in the morning as usual and didn't notice anything different. If Long Jin hadn't asked them, they wouldn't have noticed that they didn't encounter Wentian City's guards on the street today.
"Who is the lord of Wentian City?"
"I know this. There is a man named Qi Lao. He usually manages the entire Zhongzhou Empire on behalf of Emperor Yang Xiao of the Zhongzhou Empire. He is also the city lord of Wentian City."
"What a bullshit emperor Yang Xiao, he is no longer the emperor of the Zhongzhou Empire."
Long Jiner on the side said harshly.
He became furious when he heard Yang Xiao's name.
For the first time in decades, the two brothers fell into two big troubles with the same person. Would you say this is annoying or not?
The two citizens looked confused after hearing what Long Jiner said. One of them retorted:
"It's impossible. Yang Xiao is the emperor of the Zhongzhou Empire. We like him very much. He is so kind to us people."
"roll!"
Long Jiner was upset and waved his hand, telling the guards to let the two civilians go.
When the two common people saw this situation, they quickly lowered their heads and ran away in despair. As they ran, they wondered in their hearts:
What's going on with this guy? He looked fierce and evil, not at all like the officials under Emperor Yang.
"Brother, what should we do now?"
Long Jiner couldn't make up his mind and looked at his brother.
Longjin thought briefly and said:
"Three thousand people guard the west gate, and the remaining five thousand people follow me to the palace in the center of the city. If someone attacks us, remember to support each other and attack from both front and rear."
"Yes, boss."
Long Jinda left 3,000 men to defend the west gate, and led 5,000 elite guards to march towards the palace in the center of the city.
Three thousand people were flying in the air and five thousand people were running on the ground. They were magnificent and murderous.
The citizens on the street didn't know what was going on. They looked at this strange guard team in horror and tried to avoid it.
Long Jinda even asked several guards to shout loudly along the way:
"According to the order of the big leader, Long Jinda, the captain of the Shendu Guards, took over the Zhongzhou Empire. The rest of the gang evaded and retreated."
The citizens on the street were confused after hearing this.
"What's going on? Wasn't our Zhongzhou Empire founded by Emperor Yang?"
"Who is the big leader? Why should he take over our Zhongzhou Empire?"
"Hush, the big leader should be Thanos, the ruler of the dwarf star. Keep your voice down and don't cause trouble. He is very cruel."
"Where is our Emperor Yang? Why was the Zhongzhou Empire taken over by the big leader?"
"I heard that there was a fight yesterday over this matter. This group of people was beaten away by Qi Lao and others. I didn't expect that they would come again today."
"Hurry home and close the door. Maybe there will be another war, and we people will have to live a miserable life again."
...
Brother Longjin surrounded the palace with five thousand guards.
The huge palace was already empty.
As if overnight, the 100,000 guards from last night disappeared out of thin air.
"Brother, what's going on? Yesterday they fought tooth and nail, why did they all run away overnight? Are they afraid of us?"
Long Jinda was also confused. He walked back and forth in the palace hall where the fight took place yesterday. The ground was covered with broken bricks and tiles, which seemed to remind him of what happened yesterday.
Suddenly, he stopped and looked up at his brother.
"We were fooled by them!"
"What's the meaning?"
"If my guess is correct, this group of people ran away overnight, leaving an empty city for us."
"Brother, why is this an empty city?
When we came here just now, weren't there a lot of people on the street? I saw that they were in good order and the streets were prosperous. "
"Brother, you don't understand. Think about it, what are we doing here?"
"According to the order of the great leader, take over the Zhongzhou Empire."...
"We came to take over the Zhongzhou Empire, but all the officials of the Zhongzhou Empire are gone. How can we take over? If my guess is correct, they emptied all the money from the treasury, and all the officials and guards ran away. Once we have no money, Second, how can we manage this city without local officials to use?"
"Didn't we bring someone with us ourselves?"
"Our own people? I want to issue a conscription order now. Who will deliver it? How to organize the personnel? If the previous officials are all here, I only need to let their people do it.
But now, we are completely unfamiliar with the local personnel. We are like blind men and have no way of starting. Our orders cannot even get out of the palace. "
After hearing his brother's analysis, Long Jiner took a breath and said angrily:
"This group of unruly people is really hateful. Don't let me catch them, otherwise I will scratch them alive."
"That's not all I'm worried about,"
"What else are you worried about, brother?"
"There are more than a hundred major cities in the Zhongzhou Empire. If other cities are like this, then the so-called Zhongzhou Empire will no longer exist. What will be left to us is a loose sand and a group of chaotic people. With 8,000 of us, it is impossible to take over. "
"Hurry up and send someone to other cities to check."
After Long Jiner finished speaking, he immediately ordered the guards to go to various cities in the Zhongzhou Empire to announce takeover orders.
These things had been arranged before they came, and the guards only needed to take Long Jinda's order book and go to various places to read it.
Two hours later, the guards who had gone to various places to read out the takeover orders returned to Wentian City one after another.
"Report to the captain, all cities are the same as here. All local officials have disappeared, and the guards have also disappeared."
"Reporting to the captain, I arrested a few local citizens for questioning. They said that yesterday afternoon, the emperor of the Zhongzhou Empire, Yang Xiao, seemed to have returned to Wentian City. Yang Xiao announced the dissolution of the Zhongzhou Empire, and all officials and guards were dismissed. The city’s treasury has been emptied.”
"hateful!"
Long Jin slapped the coffee table next to him into pieces.
"Isn't Yang Xiao in the Ancient Continent? Why did he come back suddenly?"
Long Jiner became a little nervous. He remembered that in the ancient continent, Yang Xiao almost killed him with one punch. He was scared just thinking about it.
"This matter must be reported to the big leader and the temple elders immediately, and then the temple will issue a wanted order. Yang Xiao is wanted worldwide and will be killed without mercy. Without further ado, we will go back immediately."
Long Jinda was also a little panicked. He was even more afraid that Yang Xiao would suddenly rush out to kill him. He was no match for Yang Xiao now.
"Brother, let's go back now, but what about taking over the Zhongzhou Empire?"
"Silly brother, haven't you seen it yet? Yang Xiao deliberately disbanded the Zhongzhou Empire and left us with nothing but money and food. Eight thousand of us can't take over.
Let the Temple Elders handle this matter. Just let those old guys come here to recruit troops. Anyway, Zhongzhou Continent used to be an abandoned continent. It doesn't matter whether they are there or not. Just remove some of the highly evolved people here. "
"Can't we take over ourselves?"
"Are you stupid? We have no money and no one. Are we here to do charity?"
The two brothers originally wanted to take over the Zhongzhou Empire. Firstly, they could kill Yang Xiao's subordinates to make them angry. Secondly, they could recruit the guards here. Thirdly, they could siphon off all the money here and make a fortune.
They have no interest in managing or governing the city, and they are even less willing to get into such a mess.
They followed the Mad Saint Thanos and enjoyed even higher power than the elders of the temple. They didn't care about an abandoned place like Zhongzhou Continent.
"Alas, this bastard Yang Xiao has harmed us.
It's abominable that my brother ran away in vain. He'd better pray that he doesn't fall into my hands, otherwise, I will let him taste life worse than death. "
Long Jiner roared and blasted a wall of the palace hall with one punch.
The two brothers roared with anger and left in dejection with eight thousand guards.
Not long after the two brothers left, Wentian City erupted in enthusiastic cheers.
The guards and officials who were dismissed on the spot were at home at the moment and laughed loudly when they learned that Long Jin had left in embarrassment.
