Ji Xia looked at Bai Qi strangely, this god of killing seemed to be different from what he had imagined.
Immediately, Ji Xia looked at the broad battlefield again.
He took a deep breath, then exhaled again, and said with emotion: "The greatest catastrophe in the history of Taicang has passed for the time being."
"Let's... go back to the city."
There was a trace of excitement on the faces of the crowd. When Xiqin led tens of thousands of soldiers and hundreds of strong men here, they never even thought that they would survive.
But now, they have won, and they don't have to die, and they can return to the land that makes their hearts linger.
Everyone climbed onto the bodies of Wenye and Wujing, they spread their wings, used their flying supernatural powers, and roared away. On this land, only Baiqi in black robes remained, waiting for the arrival of the Cangcheng army .
After these troops cleaned up the battlefield, he would take action to wipe out all traces here.
Relying on the speed of the two spirit-controlling monsters, not long after, Taicheng was already in sight.
Ji Xia turned his big sun eye to look, and suddenly found that the gate of the city was full of people, led by a group of officials.
Among them are the two superior ministers Ze and Qing, as well as important ministers such as Lu Yu, Zhao Qu, Rong Lou and Su Xing.
Within three miles of the city gate, there were dense crowds of people, crowding all the way to the gate of the city, the center of the city, and many wide streets and squares in the city.
Among them are old people, teenagers and girls, and young adults.
These people are all citizens of Taicheng!With such a large number, I'm afraid there are hundreds of thousands.
That is to say, all the people in the city are here!
They stood quietly, with anxious expressions on their faces. Some of them stood behind but were short in stature, standing on tiptoes and looking forward.
Ji Xia sat on Wenye's head, appeared in the sky, and appeared in their field of vision.
"Look! That's the monster that came to the rescue during the earthquake!"
"There is a person on the head of the monster, wearing a silver robe, it is the Lord of the Kingdom!"
"There are also General Ji, Master Shi Yang, and the four generals!"
……
The crowd began to riot, and their worried expressions quickly turned clear. Many people rushed forward, and a group of soldiers hurriedly maintained order.
Lu Yu's face was also full of joy. He stroked his beard and breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, fortunately! A spies came to report just now, and there were loud noises coming from the vicinity of Cangqing Mountain. I thought there was another enemy attack. Come on, the mood is always difficult to calm down!"
Ji Ze nodded and said, "If the lord hadn't appointed me and my third younger brother to appease the mood of the people in the city and stabilize the people's hearts before leaving, I would have gone to Cangqing Mountain a long time ago. Waiting like this is a real shame. It is too painful!"
The giant leopard with wings on its back approached and fell, and finally everyone could clearly see Ji Xia on the giant leopard's head.
Ji Qing took a detailed look at Ji Xia, and suddenly burst into tears: "Xia! I will sit here, but you are the lord of the country, but you resist the enemy with blood. I am ashamed of you!"
Ji Ze also saw that Ji Xia, who always liked cleanliness, was covered in blood all over his body, even his face was covered with a thick layer of blood. He couldn't help worrying, and shouted tremblingly, "Fang Lu! Where is Fang Lu?"
Ji Xia jumped off the leopard head, took a few steps forward, interrupted Jize's words, and said with a smile: "You two princes don't have to worry, these bloodstains are all from the enemy."
boom……
A group of ministers and common people knelt down almost at the same time. The huge queue knelt down in an orderly manner. From a distance, it was like a raging wave on the sea gradually calming down.
They saluted Ji Xia solemnly, and Lu Yu said loudly: "We are waiting for the people of Taicang to welcome the lord here! If it wasn't for the lord, I'm afraid Taicang would have perished many times!"
Hundreds of thousands of Taicang people shouted: "Taicang Yongsheng, the king of the country will live forever!"
Another chief minister came out to salute Ji Xia, looked at the many generals who jumped from Wujing's back, and said solemnly: "The lord has repeatedly saved all the people from fire and water, fed and clothed them all, wiped out old enemies, and built a new city. It also makes the national power grow extremely fast, and the people have no worries about food and clothing. Such an achievement is my No. 1 in the sky."
Ji Xia was puzzled, and looked at many ministers, only to see that their expressions were pious, and their eyes were full of reverence, and they looked at Ji Xia.
Changfeng opened his arms wide, then folded his hands back and forth, and bowed deeply to Ji Xia: "With such achievements as the cornerstone, the lord of the country should be called king!"
"The lord of the country should be King Taicang!" Many ministers shouted loudly.
Countless people shouted again: "Tai Cang Yongsheng, my Wang Yongshou!"
Ji Xia turned around and saw that the people who came back with him had already knelt down, their eyes were burning, and they called Tai Cang Wang!
He paused slightly, and the spiritual energy around him flowed out, wiping away all the blood stains on his silver robe.
I saw Ji Xia's expression was majestic and calm, and he was extremely handsome!
He calmly said to all the officials and people of Taicang: "From the beginning of today, I am the king of Taicang!"
2 Chapter Twenty
After more than four months of busy construction in Taicheng, tens of thousands of young and strong Taicheng, all craftsmen in the craftsman's mansion, and many thaumaturgies have begun to take shape.
In the center of Taicheng, where the ancient stars and stars grow, there is still a very wide open space.
This vacant land was originally intended to be used for the construction of the palace, but I don't know what kind of considerations Ji Xia had, he never let the craftsman's mansion start construction, but let them go all out to build Taicheng, and the matter of the palace will be postponed for later discussion.
Therefore, all court meetings and discussions of the royal court were held in a spacious, simple and generous cowhide military tent.
After the repeated battles with Qi Ling, all the soldiers returned, and Ji Xia proclaimed himself king at the gate of Taicheng. The whole Taicheng was filled with an extremely contradictory atmosphere.
Taicang's victory, under the covetousness of a powerful enemy, won the life for hundreds of thousands of people, it is naturally something to be happy about.
But in this innocent disaster, more than [-] Tai Cang soldiers died in Tai Cang, of which there were as many as [-] Tai Cang Silver Guards, and the rest were Cang Defenders.
This was an extremely heavy blow to Tai Cang, whose total military strength was only in the early ten thousand.
On another level, the death of so many sons of Tai Cang who defended the country made all the people of Tai Cang feel heavy hearted.
Taicang has a small population and has lived here for generations. It is no exaggeration to say that these soldiers in Taicang are the sons and fathers of all the people of Taicang. Now that the sons and fathers died in battle, almost the whole country is sad.
Now in Wang Ting's military tent, the faces of all the officials in Taicang are a little sad and mixed.
And Ji Xia sat at the top, with her hair tied up in a fine attire, her expression was calm, and there was a bit of gloom between her brows.
"Tai Cang Erlang, have the casualties been counted?" He looked at the file before the case and asked.
There was the superior Yin Luyu who came out, bowed to Ji Xia, and said: "My lord, in this war, I Taicang suffered heavy casualties, 390 of the Taicang silver guards died, and 570 of the Cang defenders died. There are about [-] more people with mutilated limbs, no longer able to defend their homeland."
Ji Xia's expression became more gloomy. He looked at Ronglou and Poxian in the queue and asked, "Have the two prefectures of Taicheng and Cangcheng negotiated a standard for compensation?"
Ronglou and Poxian, who were almost standing in the front, went out to salute. The two exchanged a glance, and Ronglou said, "The discussion has been completed. All the family members of the Cangshou army who were killed or injured will pay for their food and clothing in the future." Ordinary female officials in the palace are the standard, and the two governments are responsible. Besides, after the reform, these families will be exempted from all taxes."
"There is also a detailed rule. Both the Tai and Cang Prefectures will issue detailed standards, which will be submitted to the royal court tomorrow for the king to judge."
Ji Xia nodded, thought for a while and said: "One more thing, all the people in these families will have a quota of Tailai Lingshui every seven days."
