Chapter 714 Change Strategy
The convoy moved again and soon entered the palace.

Lu Hao asked Princess Heshuo to accompany Princess Furong, and he took the people in to see the situation.

After all, if Princess Furong's parents were really dead, Lu Hao really didn't know how to comfort her.

At this time, the palace was filled with blood and corpses were everywhere, and many maids and eunuchs were also killed.

General Shen, this crazy guy, actually launched a massacre in order to vent his anger, leaving no chickens, dogs, or even a few small pets alive.

The backstage of General Shen is Zhou Lifeng of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Since General Shen has launched a rebellion, the Great Zhou Dynasty will definitely lead his army to take over the land of Shu.

How can Lu Hao defend himself with so few manpower?
The problem now is that once the leader of Shu dies, all local governments will be in chaos. Many people will definitely rise up and either occupy the mountain as king or separatist power.

Lu Hao can now keep Princess Furong, which is already very good.

There are so many corpses in the palace, and the strong smell of blood spreads to every corner of the capital. All the subjects are now in a panic, not knowing where to go?

Princess Furong was heartbroken. She just got out of the car and saw so many corpses, and she immediately fainted.

Princess Heshuo was in a similar situation to her. Now she was hiding in the carriage and didn't dare to get out of the carriage.

Lu Hao has experienced bloody storms. He is a steel warrior who has walked through mountains of corpses and seas of blood. He is also a majestic emperor through the ages, and his mind has never wavered in the slightest.

For example, General Shen not only slaughtered the entire palace, but also set it on fire. Where could Lu Hao go to find the leader of Shu?

"This General Shen is really ruthless! He actually set a fire. How can I help Furong find her parents?"

Lu Hao really had a headache.

"Your Majesty, there is blood all over the place and most of the place is on fire. Please don't go in. Just search for the Lord of Shu and leave it to us."

General Zou said loudly.

With a wave of his hand, he led the people into the burning harem behind.

"No need! Let everyone come back and don't make fearless sacrifices."

Lu Hao decisively stopped him.

Because the palaces in front have been submerged in the sea of ​​​​fire, these people will be burned even if they don't burn to death.

Isn't it worth it for a dead person, even if this person is the king of Shu?
"Your Majesty, do you think it's possible that the leader of Shu has escaped?"

General Zou asked.

"It's entirely possible!"

Lu Hao nodded slightly and understood what he meant.

"Your Majesty, do you want these corpses to be buried?"

General Zou asked again.

"Just dig a hole in the back garden and bury these bodies. Let the soldiers speed up. We may need to hurry up."

Lu Hao looked at the raging fire and said in a deep voice.

General Shen launched a rebellion and went straight into the palace. Zhou Lifeng was behind this incident. Maybe he had already stationed troops on the border.

If this is really the case, maybe Zhou Lifeng's army will arrive at the capital of Shu at dawn tomorrow.

The question now is that Lu Hao must quickly come up with countermeasures. Should he give up the capital of Shu?
Lu Hao released the power of his soul and found that the Imperial Guards who had just captured the palace were so frightened that they fled after a gun battle.

Zhou Lifeng's original plan was for the imperial guards to storm into the palace, seize the capital of Shu, and wait for him to take over and everything would be fine.

However, General Shen was killed, and the imperial guards saw the power of pistols with their own eyes, and they were all frightened and fled the capital of Shu.

"If all the Imperial Guards escape, then this city will be mine." Lu Hao changed his mind and prepared to stay.

Jindu, this ancient city, has been built by the Shu Kingdom and turned into a solid city that is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

Lu Hao now has about 500 men, plus pistols and ammunition, as well as some troops and civilians in the city, which is enough to fight against Zhou Lifeng's army.

Things were changing too fast, and the original plan to visit the Western Regions had to be interrupted. Instead, the strategy was changed, with Jindu City as the core, and began to gradually annex the entire Western Regions.

However, now we cannot show our fangs prematurely, but we must lift Princess Furong out to gain the sympathy of other empires.

Soon, the news that Prince Zhou Lifeng of the Great Zhou Dynasty instigated a rebellion by the imperial guards, captured the palace, and killed the leader of Shu spread throughout the royal capital.

Now that the remaining soldiers in the city and the people in the city know about this, they can only support Princess Furong as the new ruler of Shu.

It's a pity that even if the people in the whole city recognize it, the people and soldiers in other cities don't recognize Princess Furong's flag at all.

Under Lu Hao's soul perception, the surrounding city fell into chaos, and the people were displaced and fled to the royal capital, Jindu City.

Several surrounding dynasties, including Zheng and Yue in the south, Zhou Dynasty in the west, Xixia Dynasty and Liyang Dynasty in the north, all sent troops to occupy the cities of Shu.

Only the Jin State in the east did not come out to get a share of the pie out of past friendship. Instead, riots broke out in the country.

There is no doubt that the Zhou Dynasty not only wanted to destroy Shu, but also took advantage of the chaos to annex Jin.

All in all, the entire Western Region is now in chaos. The major dynasties are rushing out to seize the land, for fear that if they go too late, they will have nothing.

The royal capital of Shu has now become the center of the entire whirlpool, and the surrounding people have also fled to Jindu City, which has suddenly increased the burden on this city.

After a day, the palace was finally cleaned up, and a lot of civilians were mobilized to help, and the palace was finally cleared out.

After Princess Furong woke up, she immediately cooperated with General Zou to gather the remaining troops in the royal capital and organized the civilians to start preparations for war.

Since Prince Zhou Lifeng of the Great Zhou Dynasty had long wanted to annex the Kingdom of Shu, and had laid out General Shen as a chess piece, Princess Furong must avenge her parents.

Therefore, she endured her grief and immediately devoted herself to the work of guarding the royal capital, completely paralyzing herself with the busy life.

Until the evening, more and more civilians came to seek refuge around them. It was estimated that there were already [-] people, and the number was still increasing.

Lu Hao was not in a hurry. He was looking at the map of Shu in the palace and had no idea what he was thinking.

Princess Heshuo is not idle now, but is directing a group of maids to cook and solve the most basic problem of eating.

"Your Majesty, more and more refugees are pouring into the royal capital. If this continues, our food supply will not last more than a few days."

Princess Furong came in a hurry.

"Don't worry about this. I have ordered Pingxi General Wu Cangui to urgently mobilize food and come to the royal capital."

Lu Hao responded with a smile.

"Fu Rong, if it doesn't work, close the city gate and don't allow refugees to enter the city."

Princess Heshuo interrupted.

"No! They are all citizens of Shu. How can they ignore death and not save them?"

Princess Furong objected.

"Just hold on for two days, I will find a way."

Lu Hao rubbed his temples and felt a little headache.
