Chapter 831 Lord of Fengwu City
quack quack...

The heavy iron door's hinges made a tooth-ache-inducing friction sound.

The city gate was slowly pushed open by more than a dozen people. The imperial soldiers who were preparing to arrange explosive packs were overjoyed and quickly helped open the city gate together.

"Kill! Kill! Kill..."

Liu Ruxu led the Second Corps of the Imperial Central Army and entered Xunyang City.

bang bang bang...

Intensive gunfire rang out, and soldiers holding weapons on the city wall were shot and fell to the ground.

"Those who surrender will not be killed! Those who surrender will not be killed! Civilians will not be killed..."

The imperial soldiers shouted slogans and quickly rushed into the streets and alleys of the city.

Zheng Yuanjie, escorted by General Wu, General Xiao and other Imperial Guards, walked down the steps and fled for his life in a hurry, still shouting about defending the city.

When he saw the army rushing into the city, he shouted loudly: "Hold the city gate! Hold the city gate..."

You wouldn't know if you didn't shout. With such a loud voice, all the imperial soldiers turned their guns, pointed them at them and pulled the triggers.

bang bang bang...

The dense bullets were fired at Zheng Yuanjie and General Wu, and they had no time to react. A large group of people became living targets and were beaten into a hornet's nest.

"The king is dead! General Wu is dead..."

A voice resounded through the city gate and spread quickly.

The Zheng soldiers who had lost all morale put down their weapons and surrendered one after another. Many soldiers directly took off their military uniforms and armor and transformed into civilians.

Lu Hao's three-no-kill policy was implemented very well, and no soldiers killed innocent people indiscriminately. After all, the Chinese Empire would rule here in the future.

……

East Gate.

Xuanyuan Lingyu personally led the First Legion of the Empire's Central Army into Xunyang City, and immediately followed the original plan to attack the various barracks in Xunyang City.

Generals Cao Ming and Ding Rumo also attacked Xunyang City, one from the south and the other from the north, and at the same time divided their forces to attack the established mission targets.

"The king is dead! General Wu is dead..."

The news that the leader of the country Zheng Yuanjie was killed spread quickly in Xunyang City.

"Those who surrender will not be killed! Those who surrender will not be killed! Civilians will not be killed..."

Slogans one after another resounded throughout Xunyang City.

Seeing that the situation was over, countless soldiers put down their weapons and surrendered obediently, and many of them were soldiers from the entire barracks. They chose to surrender together, without any resistance at all.

In the two military camps closest to the east gate, some soldiers rushed out with weapons, trying to fight the imperial soldiers.

However, before they could rush in front of them, they were hit by bullets, and then several grenades were thrown at them, and everything was quiet in an instant.

After Cao Ming from the north gate led the army to attack, he personally led the troops into the palace, where he encountered stubborn resistance from the imperial guards.

"General Cao, the archers of the Imperial Guard are very powerful, and they are also equipped with crossbows. There are a dozen brothers in front who have been hit by arrows."

A soldier shouted a report.

"Since they want to resist, use grenades to clear the way and blow them up to death!"

Cao Ming ordered loudly with a dark face.

"Concentrate the grenades and blow them up!"

All the soldiers took out grenades and threw them forward.

bang bang bang...

Continuous explosions sounded, and the Imperial Guards were blown up into the sky like a goddess scattering flowers.

The ground was a mess, with broken limbs and bloody flesh. The Imperial Guards were heavily injured and dead, and they were no longer able to resist.

The imperial soldiers shouted slogans and quickly rushed into the palace.

On the other side, General Ding Rumor led his army to attack several military camps at the south gate. He encountered strong resistance from the two military camps. The defenders relied on the fence of the military camps to block the cavalry outside and used shields to block bullet attacks.

However, in the end, under the double blow of grenades and kerosene bombs, the entire military camp turned into a sea of ​​fire, and many soldiers were burned alive in the military camp. "Those who surrender will not be killed! Those who surrender will not be killed! Civilians will not be killed..."

This continuous slogan soon spread throughout the streets and alleys.

When many Zheng soldiers saw that the enemy had entered Xunyang City and that the leader and general were dead, they felt that there was no need to resist and immediately chose to surrender.

Both sides of the street were filled with uniformly surrendered soldiers. They were so densely packed that one could not even see the end. At this moment, all of these surrendered soldiers knelt down on one knee to welcome Emperor Yongtai of the Chinese Empire into the city.

Lu Hao rode his war horse and returned to Xunyang City with the families of Ling Zhongxian and General Wu, as well as the refugees. He was warmly welcomed by the soldiers who defended the city and the people in the city.

Of course, many ordinary people came to the streets just to see the excitement and recognize their relatives, while others were just curious to see with their own eyes the legendary and vicious Yongtai Emperor.

The fighting may still be continuing in the streets and alleys, and military camps are still burning in many places, but this cannot stop these curious people at all.

"Dear fellow citizens, I am the Yongtai Emperor of the Chinese Empire. The Zheng Kingdom has been destroyed. From today on, you are the subjects of the Chinese Empire. You are protected by the laws of the Chinese Empire. You will also enjoy various preferential treatment from the empire, including free children. study……"

Lu Hao's voice covered the entire Xunyang City.

With Lu Hao's promise and the vigorous propaganda by the refugees who followed them into the city, the common people in Xunyang City quickly learned about the empire's policies.

Of course, there was also a heavyweight Prime Minister, Ling Zhongxian, who was there to help and speak out, giving these ordinary people some reassurance.

"Mr. Ling, I'm afraid you will have to temporarily take over the role of city lord this time."

Lu Hao turned to look at Ling Zhongxian and said loudly.

"Your Majesty, why don't you think of me as the city lord?"

Ling Fengwu quickly interrupted.

"This one……"

Lu Hao glanced at Ling Zhongxian and asked with a grimace, "Are you okay?"

"Of course, no problem. I know every corner of Xunyang City, and I also know many villagers and elders. I guarantee that Xunyang City will be kept in order!"

Ling Fengwu was full of confidence.

"Okay, then congratulations, Lord Fengwu City!"

Lu Hao readily agreed.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Ling Fengwu was extremely happy.

"But, let's be honest, if you don't do well, you will be spanked!"

Lu Hao laughed happily.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will definitely give my best to you and die!"

Ling Fengwu immediately expressed her loyalty.

"Who wants you to die? I want you to manage Xunyang City well, and I don't want you to die! If you really don't understand, just ask the old man, do you understand?"

Lu Hao's head was full of black lines.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will help that little girl!"

Ling Zhongxian interrupted with a smile.

"I understand. Thank you, Your Majesty. Thank you, Grandpa!"

Ling Fengwu quickly thanked her.

"City Lord Fengwu, the first thing you need to do is go back to the City Lord's Mansion immediately and summon all the officials from Xunyang City to make them work for you. If you don't have enough face, ask the old man to come forward and they will definitely come."

Lu Hao explained with a smile.

"What the emperor said is true. In this case, I will have a lot less things to do."

Ling Fengwu said happily.

"The second thing is to immediately post a notice to calm the people and maintain the stability of Xunyang City. Just say that everything will continue as usual and I will not hold anyone accountable..."

Lu Hao continued to explain.
