The prefect shook his head, coughed, and vomited out a mouthful of black blood, which made Liu Rui very anxious: "I know about my own situation... Hao Mian, don't blame yourself too much, this... this Huaicheng still needs you..."

Liu Rui's eyes reddened. He did treat each other with sincerity towards the prefect. Without his support, he would not have come to this day. At this moment, the other party is like this, but he is helpless. It's even more miscellaneous.

This prefect, at the beginning, regardless of the difference in status and status, was only a leader. He promoted himself step by step, fully trusted himself, and even handed over the military power of the entire Huaicheng. Although it was for Wei State, it was still It is full trust in Liu Rui.

Such a prefect may be one of the few in the Wei Kingdom now.

Liu Rui took a breath and almost shed tears, all of which came from the bottom of his heart. Although he had known the prefect for a long time, since he came to the Warring States period, almost everything about himself was brought up by the prefect.

How reassured he is of himself, he is an outsider, he can even be said to be unidentified, and the entire army of the city is handed over to him, and he is not afraid that Liu Rui will join the Qin army...

"Cough cough... Hehe, the general should not be sad, Huaicheng is the most important thing." The prefect slowly closed his eyes and let out a sigh, "This old man is tired, this Huaicheng will be entrusted to the general first..."

After all, it was like a deep sleep, motionless.

Liu Rui bowed deeply towards the prefect, nodded, and murmured in his heart, "I will definitely not live up to what your lord entrusted."

Seeing this, the Heiyi personal guards were also saddened. This prefect is a rare good official, but now he has suffered a tragic disaster.

"You bastards, what are you doing!" Liu Rui said coldly when he saw this, "Your Majesty was poisoned to death, wouldn't your actions make him die without a corpse?!"

The poison on the arrow had completely spread throughout the body, not to mention the skin and blood, but also the internal organs and bone marrow. I am afraid that with a single tap, the prefect's body would turn into a puddle of flesh.

"Leave two people here, handle it with care, if I will come back and see that the body of the prefect is a little incomplete, don't blame my military for handling it!" Liu Rui's face was gloomy, and then he continued, "The others follow me!"

The prefect's mansion has been attacked by assassins, and there will certainly be other places. Even Meng Wu may take the opportunity to attack Huaicheng. These are things that have to be guarded against.

The most urgent task now is to convene the army, wipe out the assassins in the city, and then strengthen the defense and observe the movements of the Qin army.

"Yeah, just use this trick if you can't beat it, what a famous general in the world!" Liu Rui's eyes burst into flames, and then he suddenly thought of a key question. Meng Wu has fought for a lifetime, no matter how difficult it is, he has never used it. The means of the next three indiscriminate, even, the God of War Bai Qi has flooded the city, but Meng Wu did not.

There is always something strange about this incident, unlike Meng's consistent style. Could it be that something happened on the Qin army's side, or did the Qin country send a counselor here?

When Liu Rui walked out of the city lord's mansion, Zhuge Liang was still waiting anxiously outside. The life and death of the prefect was very important. Seeing Liu Rui walking out, he hurriedly asked, "My lord, what about the prefect?"

Liu Rui shook his head and sighed.

Zhuge Liang's face darkened, knowing the result, he said worriedly: "Now that the prefect is deceased, who will take charge of the overall situation in the city?"

In charge of the overall situation, it is still necessary to be the prefect. Even if Liu Rui is the military chief of Huaicheng, as long as it is related to the military, even the things of appeasing people's hearts need to be done by the prefect.

If there is no prefect, once the work is not in place, it is likely to cause panic among people, and even civil unrest.

"Before the prefect passed away, he gave me the seal." Liu Rui told Zhuge Liang about this.

When Zhuge Liang heard the words, he felt at ease. At least there is an agent prefect, everything is easy to say, at least the hearts of the city will be greatly stabilized.

"Kong Ming, now Huaicheng's reassuring people's hearts are temporarily left to you to do. I can't do it." Liu Rui sighed, and then said, "The most urgent task is to see what actions Qin Jun has made, and the purge. Assassins in the city."

If the assassins don't clean up, Huaicheng will not be peaceful for a day, and more people will die.

Zhuge Liang naturally knew this, he watched the soldiers cleaning the city lord's mansion, nodded, and said, "Let's leave the assassination to General Li Guang. After all, the assassin is only a small road. Although he has stabbed a prefect, he doesn't. Dare to make a second move, or you will definitely die once discovered, and the most important thing at the moment is the situation on Qin Jun's side."

At this moment, a scout came to report: "General, counselor, something bad happened, the military camp was attacked by assassins, and several generals... died for their country!"

Liu Rui's eyes lit up, and Zhuge Liang also looked ugly, and then said, "Let General Li Guang lead his troops there immediately, and encircle and clean it up as soon as possible!"

"No!" The scout got the order and left quickly. . ,,.

1145: Clear the city

The city was in chaos, and many people took to the streets to see what happened, which led to more chaos in the city.

Zhuge Liang and Liu Rui listened to the reports from the scouts, and felt a little powerless. In the past, these were handled by the prefect, but now that the prefect is dead, they can only rely on them.

"Gai Nie!" Liu Rui took a deep breath and shouted.

Gai Nie's face was solemn at this time. Although he still had internal injuries, he had never been appointed. At this time, he knew that Liu Rui was going to find something for him.

"You take a team of swordsmen to patrol and manage the order of Huaicheng. Remember, once you find the perpetrators, you will be ruthless, and you will kill without mercy!"

……

After receiving the order, Gai Nie took the swordsman team to patrol everywhere. He thought it was an easy task, and only when it was actually done did he realize how difficult it was.

Qin Guo didn't know how many minions were sent in, but on the way, Gai Nie saw houses on fire everywhere. Occasionally, he saw a rioter. He had just killed him, and soon on another street, residents came. A cry for help followed by another burst of fire.

It’s almost like running here and there just now, more tiring than fighting, and even occasionally being attacked by meticulous work. Although it didn’t cause any damage, the problem is that these things are very difficult to deal with!

This phenomenon is especially serious in Xicheng. There are more than ten households in the burned houses alone, and dozens of people have died. The city is now in a panic.Many people thought that the Qin army had attacked.

"General, it's not the way to go on like this!" A swordsman was unable to run, bent his body, and gasped.

Gai Nie stood in front of this man, and just finished off a man who set the fire, and said helplessly: "There is no way to do it! This was ordered by the general himself, and now the general has temporarily taken the post of prefect."

"What? The Prefect is dead?"

People can't believe it.

"Shh, this matter must not be spread." Gai Nie looked around, if he let Jing Zuo listen, he would not be able to spread rumors!

Everyone bowed their heads and remained silent. One of them suddenly said, "General, I have a solution."

"Say what you can do." Genie said in surprise.

This person suggested that people should pretend to be meticulous, let out the air, and say that the North Gate will open the door for the Qin army, and the inside and outside should work together to capture Huaicheng.

Sure enough, this method was really effective. Those meticulous works were really fooled. They all gathered together and rushed to the north gate. There were three or four hundred people, but when they arrived at the north gate, they were greeted by countless bows and crossbows. With an order, they all became sieves.
