Chapter 463

After dinner.

afternoon.

Shu Fu came to the Nanyu Imperial Capital. At this time, the Imperial Capital was still prosperous, but it was shrouded in a gloomy atmosphere. The defeat at the front line had already fermented among the people.

Worry.

confused.

At the same time, some people 'faith collapsed'.

For example, some loyalists of the empire once thought that the empire would prosper forever, but they unexpectedly collapsed so quickly, and now only three states are still in control.

No.

The new news came, and the rebels continued to move northward, like a broken bamboo.

Three states is a thing of the past, and it's even worse.

People should do whatever they want.

No matter how hard it is.

I have to live too.

It's impossible to escape like those big families, and they can't take care of things that far away. Even if the empire is discredited, the people are not so afraid of the rebels.

Some news came that the rebels were restrained.

Do not loot.

Do not bully.

Even the flat salt order was implemented in the five southern states, and the price was extremely low, all of which were first-class salt.

Everyone has a steelyard in their hearts. Obviously, even if the capital is broken, it will not be too bad.

What is really worrying is the big households. I heard that the rebels will make decisions for the people when they break the city. I don’t know if it is true.

At the feet of the Son of Heaven.

There are many nobles.

nature.

There are many injustices, and as time goes by, the resentment is deep.

. . .

Come to a tea house on the main road.

second floor.

by the window.

Shu Fu sat quietly, drinking tea, the taste was not bad, of course it was not the same variety as the earth's tea, but it was made from the same green leaves.

So he is collectively referred to as tea.

Don't say it.

It tastes very good.

If it is sold to the earth, it is estimated that it will also sell well.

Beside, a beautiful young girl cheers and entertains.

I have been very busy recently, and I just finished assembling ten rocket thrusters this morning, so I came here to relax, of course, the content is limited to drinking tea and listening to music.

"How's the business of the tea house recently?"

"not good!"

The girl shook her head.

"Is it because many people fled the imperial capital?"

heard the words.

The girl's complexion changed, and she hissed, "You can't talk nonsense." Now a large number of dignitaries in the imperial capital are fleeing quickly, but the people are forbidden to talk about it.

Talking about this topic is dangerous.

But since the business was really bad, I looked around and didn't have to be afraid of being heard.

"Ah!"

Shu Fu smiled and continued drinking tea.

"Step! Step!"

At this time, there was a sound of horseshoes outside the window, and there were more than a dozen heavy-duty carriages, the first three were for people, and the backs were full of boxes of all sizes.

There are also guards accompanying.

Obviously.

Another runaway saw several waves in just half a cup of tea.

In this city now, most of the rich and powerful want to run away.

also.

There are still some speculators who are going to stay and bet on both sides. They want to bet that the new dynasty will lack people. At that time, they will definitely recruit talents and recruit good people, and many people will have a chance.

In this way, it might not be possible to continue the power of the family.

Therefore, the family members were not allowed to go away, but some collateral talents were left to wait for the opportunity.

to them.

Shu Fu can only say: I have an idea! But don't get too fancy.

Really establish a new dynasty.

Don't talk about the center.

Even the state capital does not allow the aristocratic family to get involved in power.

Centralization is a must.

The Nanyu Dynasty needed the aristocratic family to maintain the system, and it obviously didn't need it. On the contrary, it will weaken it vigorously in the future. First of all, it will take back the cultivated land.

Those who are guilty shall be confiscated.

Not guilty, buy.

mountain forest.

mineral.

land.

…

What was once obtained cheaply through power, then use power to take it back. All of this will not cost much, because there are too few families without records.

. . .

The next two days.

Prince He breathed a sigh of relief, those coaches were not completely out of their minds, the day after King Qin sent out the letter, they received a lot of reports of returning aid.

However.

The good mood didn't last long, and he was hit by his subordinates again and again.

"Report, Yingcheng surrenders!"

"..."

"Report, Xincheng has fallen!"

"..."

"Report, the rebels have passed Huaijun pass."

"..."

The fall of cities and the rapid advance of the rebels clearly told Prince He that the situation was still very difficult, so he took a look in the mirror.

Yep, a few more strands of white hair.

Counting the days, the rebels will besiege the city tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.

Fortunately, the imperial city usually pays attention to city defense, which gave Prince He a little confidence.

. . .

However, a day later.

The rebels who were supposed to besiege the imperial capital did not show up.

"Where are people?"

"Report, the rebel cavalry united into one group, turned back, and went to..."

"..."

Prince He's complexion changed, and he quickly came to the sand table. When he saw the rebels from all walks of life gathered in one direction, he felt a chill in his heart.

Follow this route.

It won't be long before they will encounter at least one army of King Qin.

this......

Thinking again that almost all the cities behind King Qin's army were occupied. In this way, the rebel cavalry who wanted to outflank the rebel cavalry might be surrounded by them instead.

No!

Prince He shouted in his heart that it was unscientific.

This can only be done with a strong information capability. Doesn't it take time to send letters to cooperate?

"What should I do? Do you want to save me?"

Suddenly, a huge problem appeared in front of him.

obviously.

If you don't save them, the forces of King Qin will have to kneel, unless there is a miracle, but Prince He doesn't believe in miracles now, these days are too miserable.

It's all bad news.

How can there be a miracle?

But if it is saved... After another deduction, Prince He sighed in his heart.

never mind!

They are already plotting, and choosing any empire will be troublesome, so it is better to be more cautious.

sit on the chair.

The eyes are very confused, and the imperial capital is no longer safe.

. . .

the next day.

morning.

The atmosphere in the court hall was very gloomy. All the important officials who usually talked loudly and held great power no longer had the momentum of the past, and lowered their heads in unison.

After a routine briefing on the frontline battle situation.

Prince He took a deep breath.

"Although I don't want to admit it, it is difficult for the current imperial capital to resist the pace of the rebels. We must make plans early. I suggest that we temporarily move to Beilin City."

"What do you think?"

moment.

All the ministers in the audience were overjoyed, and finally they didn't have to stick to it. They thought so before, but no one dared to bring it up.

"I think this is the best option right now."

"Seconded!"

"Seconded!"

"..."

No one did not support it. Although the rebels did not besiege the city, it was only a matter of time. Beilin City was regarded as the most important city fortress in the empire's defense of the north.

It is stronger than the defense of the imperial capital.

And it belongs to a semi-military fortress city, not as much 'drag' as the imperial capital.

Such as siege.

No food.

There are too many people in the imperial capital, and it is easy to cause troubles, but Beilin City is different, there are fewer people in the city, most of them are military families, and the overall defense is easier than in the imperial capital.

The key is that it is not far from Yuancheng, so it is easier to run.

Although the imperial capital is in the northernmost state, it is located in the south of the state.

Once the two southern states fell, the rebels directly covered their faces, and the geographical location was extremely poor.

Moved well.

This does not mean abandoning the imperial capital, but a temporary retreat. The imperial capital is still the main line of defense against the rebels. No one wants the rebels to attack Beilin.
