Water Margin people

Chapter 1897 The snipe and the clam fight

Alexius III and others, who were frightened, were like ants on a hot pan. They heard screams and explosions.

"It must have been a fierce fight!"

"The explosion is Qi's witchcraft!"

"too frightening!"

Those ministers did not sleep all night, but none of them wanted to sleep at all. They just hoped that everything would be over soon.

"boom!"

The gate was forced open and the guards immediately went forward to check.

"Bang bang bang!"

There was a burst of gunfire, and the soldiers who came forward were shot into pieces.

"What a nice and elegant time!"

Li Jun rushed in with a gun and his men. Because they used too much force when breaking the door, the door panel fell directly to the ground, and smoke and dust were everywhere near the door.

Everyone in the hall didn't dare to speak, and when they saw Li Jun walk in, they were so scared that they stepped back.

"General Li, what happened at night has nothing to do with us. We tried to stop it, but those people didn't listen. The military power is in their hands. We are under house arrest here."

Theodore quickly stepped forward to explain that Li Jun was a murderer, and if he was unhappy, he would kill a few people for fun.

"It has nothing to do with you. Do you think I should believe it?"

Li Jun looked at Theodore with contempt. How could this matter be so easy to let go?

"Now I'll give you a chance. Go and capture all those people until I'm satisfied! Remember, I'll only give you one day!"

Li Jun looked at those people and said, as for what would make them satisfied, that would depend on his mood.

Alexios III and others reacted quickly. Since the other party had put forward conditions, they should be fine as long as they met them. This was their only chance to survive.

"What are you doing standing still?"

Li Jun yelled at those people.

Alexios III and others fled away tumbling.

They soon arrived at the military camp, but it was deserted.

"damn it!"

Alexios III was furious. His entire army was gone. What should he do?

"Your Majesty, we still have some guard knights, we can gather them together!"

"Your Majesty, there should still be some troops at the port!"

……

A group of ministers immediately began to make plans. At this moment, their minds were very clear and they knew exactly where the army was in Constantinople.

"Go and get them all here!"

Alexius III immediately gave the order.

Some ministers went to do it immediately. Their legs and feet were very flexible at this moment, and even the elderly ones could walk very fast.

"Your Majesty, should we...go?"

A minister looked at Alexios III and whispered that now that they were out, this was the best chance to escape.

"go!"

Alexius III's eyes lit up. His mind had been so confused in the past two days that he even forgot to escape.

"no!"

Theodore immediately spoke up to stop him.

"You can think of this, but Qi can't? If you let us out, you're sure they won't be afraid that we'll escape!"

Theodore spoke before those people could open their mouths to question him.

"Your Majesty, the roads out of the city have been blown up!"

A minister ran over and said that the man was going to gather the garrison near the city gate.

"The roads were blown up?"

Everyone then remembered the dull explosion at night, and it must have been at that time that the building was blown up.

"Over the mountain?"

Someone said that since the road had been blown up, they could still take a small path over the mountains.

"We can't go on. The mountain road is too slow. If we are discovered, Qi will block us from behind and we will still be unable to go on."

Someone immediately denied it, saying that they were not just one or two people leaving, but a whole family, with gold, silver and jewelry to take with them, so how could they possibly take the mountain road?

"Let's do as Qi asks first!" Alexios III didn't want to think anymore. Since he couldn't leave, he wouldn't leave. Qi didn't kill them now, and it was unlikely to kill them later.

Soon the ministers who had left came back with a group of soldiers.

"Go, capture all those people, not one less!"

Alexios III ordered that if they wanted to survive they must meet Qi's demands.

"Yes."

A group of ministers led the troops and began to arrest people all over the city.

After the defeat, the old nobles thought of fleeing, but they had too many things to take with them, and the wealth they had plundered for generations was all in Constantinople.

"Quick, load it up and transport it away!"

The nobles' stewards were directing the servants to load the valuables into the carts.

"Catch them all!"

At this moment, an official came with his troops.

"What are you doing? These belong to the Viscount!"

The butler yelled.

"The one caught is the Viscount's family!"

The official sneered, these people were his bargaining chips to save his life.

"Who dares to touch my things?"

A middle-aged nobleman came out of the courtyard with his guards and shouted.

"My Lord Viscount, Qi State invites you!"

The official looked at the Viscount and smiled.

"You traitors."

The Viscount pointed at the official and started to curse.

"kill!"

The officials were too lazy to waste time and directly ordered the soldiers to charge. There were a lot of people to capture, and they only had one day, and there were many urgent things to do.

On the high tower of the palace.

"Military Advisor, those people have already started killing."

Li Jun looked at Xu Guanzhong with admiration and said that they could make the enemies kill each other without spending a single soldier, and no matter what the result was, they would be the biggest beneficiaries.

"This is human nature, and the West cannot escape this rule."

Xu Guanzhong smiled and said, when the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits, this is maximizing benefits.

By noon, Constantinople was already filled with shouts and cries of killing. Both those surrendering and those resisting were killing each other in a frenzy, and the streets were filled with soldiers fighting each other.

These people were wearing the same military uniforms and armor, and in the end no one knew who the enemy was, they just killed anyone they saw.

Civilians were also affected. After the melee, the army, which was bloodthirsty, didn't care about civilians at all.

"Military advisor, General, we have found those strange soldiers. They are hiding in a house in the east of the city!"

A soldier came running to report.

"Oh, you found it? Let's go and take a look!"

Li Jun said excitedly that the people he was looking for were naturally the Spartans, who almost killed him.

"Those are Spartans. They have good fighting qualities, but they are all slaves of the Byzantines. It would be a good idea to recruit them and let them fight against the Byzantines."

Xu Guanzhong said that he had seen records of the Spartans in the documents he had obtained.

"That depends on whether they know what's best for them!"

Li Jun smiled, put his spear on his back and led his men out of the palace.

Li Jun brought his men directly to the outside of the courtyard and used the same violence, directly blowing up the door panels.

The Spartans in the yard were so nervous that they held their weapons and prepared to fight to the death.

"If I were you, I would lay down my weapons. In the face of truth, what you hold in your hands are nothing more than firewood sticks."

Li Jun walked in with a shotgun in his hand, and the Qi soldiers also walked in with shotguns in their hands.

The Spartan warriors were prepared to fight to the death, but after seeing the black barrels, they were also afraid. They had seen how terrifying these things were last night. Nothing could stop them. If they were hit, they would be seriously disabled even if they didn't die. (End of this chapter)
