Chapter 5697 The city gate collapses and the road is overturned
Speaking of this, Liu Yu's face was solemn, his eyes swept across the faces full of surprise and confusion, and continued: "Just like some soldiers who had mistakenly entered a demon thief, I, Liu Yu, had been forced by the situation and had to bow to Huan Xuan and lead the army for him. Of course, at that time, Huan Xuan had not usurped the throne and became a rebel. Instead, as the prime minister of the Great Jin Dynasty, he used the emperor to order the princes to do things in the name of the emperor. But no matter what, I also served for him after Huan Xuan usurped the throne. According to the laws of the Great Jin Dynasty, I also helped the evil and became a rebel."
Liu Fan, who was standing under the commander's flag, whispered from a distance: "Brother Jinu, we had no choice at that time. We were just deceiving surrender and deceiving Huan Xuan. If we don't do this, we will die on the spot, and there will be no Jingkou Jianyi later."
Liu Yu smiled slightly and said, "The truth is this, but we still owe something in the name of the great righteousness, but these are not the point I want to say. What I want to say is that Huan Xuan sent me to lead troops to pacify the Tianshi Dao. At that time, Wu land had been destroyed after years of war, and the demon thieves had no food and supplies. So they began to continue to rob and plunder the people and wealthy families who had survived the disaster. The land of the Three Wus finally got several months of peace and fell into war again. Because of the rampage of demon thieves, thousands of wealthy families were starved to death in the house, and after their death, they even had their clothes stripped away."
"Faced with such a demon thief who is like a beast and a demon, I should eliminate all evil and destroy them. But because of my kindness, and even my little selfishness, Lu Xun once again asked me for surrender and revenge, and wanted to meet me. After I hesitated for a long time, I went to see him. To be honest, before I saw him, I thought I had seen through all the tricks of the demon thief and would not be fooled by them. But when Lu Xun hit the thing that I was most worried about was that if I eliminated the demon thief, Huan Xuan saw that I was useless and he would not really fight the Northern Expedition, so he was likely to attack me and get rid of me like the general of the Northern Prefecture Army. My heart was shaken. The first time this happened to me."
Meng Huaiyu shouted: "Brother Jinu, we can all understand your approach. At that time, the evil thief was in power. You could only serve him in the morning and he could not even raise troops to fight against Huan, because he deliberately tested you, allowing you to the land of the Three Wus, which was short of food and rice, so that the soldiers could not survive without the supply of the court. In addition, your family was in the hands of Huan Xuan, so you could not resist Huan Xuan under such circumstances."
Liu Yu sighed: "Yes, Lu Xun and Xu Daofu told me the same thing back then. They proposed to cooperate with me, and they would produce the looted grain, join forces with me to eliminate Huan Xuan. Afterwards, they separatisted the four counties of Wu and accepted the official title of the court. I could rely on the anti-Huan merits, control the court, and even stand independent. They thought I would accept this tempting proposal!"
Xiang Mi laughed and said, "These monster thieves are too much. What a loyal and righteous person, how could they join them? Moreover, these monster thieves raised by the bitch will run away every time they cannot win. Relying on the navy warships, the old thieves are as skilled as we ride horses. Therefore, we often win battles on land, but they have the opportunity to go into the sea to escape. Once the army leaves, they will come back to land again, just like psoriasis, which is really uncomfortable."
Liu Yu nodded and said, "Yes, first of all, I do have the intention of protecting the enemy, at least I have to save my life and take the opportunity to fight against Huan. Secondly, I am not sure to truly eliminate the demon thief. As long as the thief head Lu and Xu and the other two are not eliminated, they will continue to have the opportunity to make a comeback. Thirdly, I still think of Lu Xun and Xu Daofu too well, thinking that they still have human nature and can turn back. After letting them into the sea, they will go to foreign lands, leave their lives, and no longer do evil, because at that time I thought only Sun En was the real demon, but I didn't expect that compared with Lu Xun and Xu Daofu, he was considered a good person."
Some people in the crowd began to cry and curse Lu Xun and Xu Daofu, saying that after the rebellion of the Three Wus, they pretended to open warehouses and release grain, attracting the villagers who hid to join them, but they were gone forever. The people who were unwilling to go on the boat with them were killed and cut their flesh and marinated, and they became cooked military rations they said for food at sea.
There are also some locals in Lingnan who accused Lu Xun and Xu Daofu of the local ly rebels, who did everything evil, slaughtered tribes, burned the cave villages, and piled up the heads of the dead into Jingguan, performing various evil rituals, summoning evil spirits and evil gods to bring plagues to each tribe. If they do not succumb to them, they will die without a place to bury them.
Liu Yu listened to these bloody and tears accusations, and amid the deep roar of bitterness and revenge, tears flashed in his eyes, and his voice became choked: "Dear soldiers, the people of the Great Jin Dynasty, the evil of demons and thieves is hard tolerated. This is the difference between my thoughts back then. I let them go, and the disaster has been left to this day. This is my Liu Yu's crime, and I must settle it myself. Today, Xu Daofu is trapped in the lonely city again in the first city, just like before going to the sea. But this time, no matter what, I will not let him go."
Speaking of this, Liu Yu turned around and whispered to the city: "Xu Daofu, don't be a turtle with your head. Haven't you ever wanted to divide your strength with me since you were a child? After entering Tianshidao, you want to fight for life and death with me? Today is the time for us to settle the accounts!"
A burst of gold and iron intersected, and a harsh and strange laughter sounded from the city head. The entire city wall was shaking slightly. On the city tower full of arrows, a giant man with a bald and beard walked to the city head with a giant golden steel pestle and walked to the city head and slapped heavily onto the ground. With a "boom", the burning city gate under him collapsed, and a thick black smoke immediately covered the entire door hole. It was impossible to see clearly what was going on inside, but there was only one thing that made everyone convinced: the city gate finally collapsed and could finally be killed in, and all this was done by the thief leader Xu Daofu!
