Chapter 557 Xiao Ruxun is the one who smoked you!

In fact, when Xiao Ruxun appeared, Liu Yong felt that something bad was going to happen. He had heard of Xiao Ruxun's name, but he had been guarding Burma for the past three years, why did he come here suddenly?

The crux of the problem is not here, but what should Liu Yong do after it has been exposed.

Foolish people are easy to fool, those officers and soldiers who are surrounded are already vulnerable, but Xiao Ruxun is not a character easy to fool, not to mention that he still has such powerful cavalry under his command, let alone tens of thousands of people here, if they really want to fight, the whole Taiyuan City is not an opponent.

He instinctively wanted to run away, but with so many eyes on him, he had to bite the bullet and move forward, so as to fight for a chance of survival. If he escaped at this time, he would really have no way out.

He couldn't escape, he had to stand there, at least for now, the Taiyuan people were still on his side.

Standing opposite Xiao Ruxun, even though there was a considerable distance, there was still a heavy sense of oppression coming towards him, making him at a loss as to what to do.

After finally calming down, Xiao Ruxun began to question him.

"Are you from Taiyuan?"

Liu Yong nodded.

"Has there ever been a disaster this time?"

"Except for me, the whole family was killed by the northern captives."

Xiao Ruxun's tone softened a little.

"Why do you do this kind of thing? You know that inciting the people to encircle and kill the officers and soldiers is like rebelling. Even if the governor orders you to be killed now, you will not be guilty of death. Because of your incitement, more than [-] officers and soldiers were killed or injured. Why did you do it? Things like this? Could it be for those gold and silver treasures and food?"

Liu Yong knew that he couldn't tell a lie in front of so many people. If he wanted to survive, he could only rely on his eloquence.

"Not to mention that my family suffered a disaster and was burned by the northern captives. There were many casualties and many families were destroyed. These northern captives robbed too many and couldn't take them away, so they left them all. Yes, can't we get back what we have been robbed of?

But those officers and soldiers actually killed us and wanted to rob those gold and silver treasures. General Xiao, those things belonged to us, and they were taken from us by the northern captives. Come in, now even this bit of property will be taken away!Were we wrong, or were the officers and soldiers wrong? "

It is the basic skill of a businessman to have a keen mind and a good eloquence. Liu Yong explained his experience very clearly, put the officers and soldiers on the side of evil, and made the majority of Taiyuan people become complete victims. This makes sense. It's clear, it's not them who are wrong, it's the officers and soldiers who are wrong.

In this way, who can think that it is the fault of the people?
In fact, it is similar to what Liu Yong said. It is true that the officers and soldiers wanted to occupy those treasures and food, and then they had conflicts with the common people who also wanted those things. Liu Yong urged everyone to protect themselves in order to survive, but he did not Thinking that people get fat when they have more courage, and more and more people get together, which makes things bigger.

Almost wiped out these Ming troops.

That's a big problem.

Can the court not pursue it afterwards?
The guard who followed Xiao Ruxun said in a low voice: "General, what he said is indeed the truth. According to my subordinates' understanding, it was indeed a group of officers and soldiers who killed people first. Being stuck here, things got out of hand."

Xiao Ruxun nodded, and then said loudly: "The governor knows what you said, but no matter what, you can't surround the officers and soldiers. This is like rebellion. Even if there is a reason for the incident, the court will track it down in the future. You wait There is also a need to take responsibility.

If you don’t want to be held accountable by the court, you can retreat now and stay home behind closed doors. If the house is destroyed, you can find a house of relatives and friends or an unowned house to borrow temporarily. The governor will help you get back the gold, silver and food. In another two hours, the governor will put porridge at the gate of the governor's mansion, and those of you who have no food in your family will come to get the porridge. "

After hearing this, people looked at each other, and those who didn't hear clearly asked the person in front of what Xiao Ruxun said. Those who heard clearly showed hesitation and struggle, and then looked at Liu Yong.

Whether it can be done now or not really depends on Liu Yong. What he said is still very appealing. Xiao Ruxun is not only saying it to the people of Taiyuan, but he is actually saying it to Liu Yong, let him weigh it up and incite the people The seriousness of the problem of rebellion, whether you want to live or die.

Liu Yong was instantly frightened into a cold sweat.

Then he turned around.

"Fathers and elders! General Xiao has made great contributions to the Ming Dynasty and made great contributions. Such a general is worthy of trust! Since he said so, let's all go back and throw away all the weapons. Let's go back and wait for the news, and close the door. Don't move around the door, and go to the governor's mansion to get the porridge in two hours!"

With the cooperation of Liu Yong, the people of Taiyuan put down their sticks and poles little by little, and slowly left from the outside to the inside of the various streets that gave way to the officers and soldiers, leaving layer by layer. Knowing what to say, he watched the people outside go away, feeling bewildered, so he had no choice but to follow.

In fact, most people don't know what happened, why they were besieged, why they left, but since everyone left, they followed suit, and people's herd mentality can be seen, and those who dare to be different and oppose the masses are not not much.

Liu Yong knew that he should and could not leave, so he stood obediently where he was, waiting for Xiao Ruxun's verdict.

Seeing that the incident had been resolved peacefully for the time being, Xiao Ruxun heaved a sigh of relief. To be honest, he was prepared to kill in his heart.

In order to control the situation, if the guy instigating the crowd is an ambitious person, Xiao Ruxun will kill people without hesitation in order to save most of the people, but now that this guy is willing to cooperate, it would be great.

Riding his horse to Liu Yong's side, Xiao Ruxun looked Liu Yong up and down, and saw that he was well-groomed, well-dressed, and his conversation just now had some knowledge. He should not be a low-level commoner, at least he has received education.

But now is not the time to pursue him.

"You follow Ben Du, and I will talk to you after Ben Du finishes dealing with the affairs here."

Liu Yong was stunned for a moment, and then quickly expressed his understanding.

The first thing Xiao Ruxun has to deal with is naturally not Liu Yong, but those bad guys. Originally, the invasion of the northern captives was enough trouble, but now it has caused antagonism between the government and the people. Leaving aside the invasion of foreign enemies, it has actually caused internal instability. Could it be that these bastards Think the head on your neck is too heavy, want to be brisk?
When the people had almost left, Xiao Ruxun ordered Wang Hui and several relatives to lead people to maintain the order of Taiyuan City, arrange the city defense of Taiyuan, and at the same time try to count the losses of Taiyuan City, and then he brought Li Rusong and a group of fierce The cavalry came to the group of scum surrounded by the people.

"Ask your chiefs to see the governor! Just say that the commander-in-chief of Yubian Pinglu, Zhennanhou Xiao Ruxun, is here! Also! Remove all these obstacles immediately! What does this look like?!"

Xiao Ruxun rode on the horse and shouted angrily to the timid Ming army.
