The room goes through the late Ming Dynasty, and the back door leads to North America at the beginni

The wall of Ruyang City was more than 10 feet high, and the third floor of the East Gate Tower was 60 to 70 feet high. Although Chen Wan had not practiced the technique of jumping off a building, he was able to jump from a height of more than 20 meters, and finally achieved his wish and died for his country.

"General Chen is dead!" another defeated soldier shouted.

This caused the Chu army on the city walls and in the city to collapse faster.

In addition, without any organization or command, the remaining Chu army could no longer pose any obstacle to the Hui army. Soon, the Hui army followed the gaps in the city wall that were blown up, as well as other unguarded sections of the city wall, and poured into Ruyang City like a tide.

Ruyang Prefecture Government Office.

An aide said to Gao Sheng anxiously, "Sir, the enemy has invaded the city! The Grand Marshal has already jumped off the building and died for his country. What should we do now?"

Gao Sheng looked expressionless and said, "Don't worry about me, just run for your lives. Oh, by the way, find me three feet of white silk, or poisoned wine."

When several staff members and guards in the government hall heard this, they knew that Goldman Sachs had made up his mind to die.

So, except for the two close followers and one student he brought from home, the rest of the people fled for their lives.

The student and his attendant were obedient, but they were looking for white silk and poisoned wine.

The older attendant A said, "We can't let the master go on the road alone, so I will accompany him for a while. You are young and have a long life ahead of you, so find a place to hide first. If there is a chance, collect the bodies of the master and me and bury them in peace. If there is no chance, forget it."

Close attendant B cried bitterly, "Third Uncle..."

As for the student, he has always stayed with Goldman Sachs.

Seeing this, Gao Sheng said, "Zi Sheng, why are you staying here? Go away now."

The student said: "I am willing to die with you, teacher!"

"That's not necessary," said Gao Sheng. "You are not yet an official of the Great Chu, so you don't have to die for it. The Great Chu may be finished. When the world changes its surname, if it is still tolerable, you can live a peaceful life."

"Teacher!" Zisheng cried sadly.

Goldman closed his eyes and stopped talking.

This student is also stubborn and refuses to leave.

It was unknown how long it took before the two followers came back.

The oldest attendant A held a roll of hemp rope and said awkwardly, "Master, we didn't find the white silk or the poisoned wine. We only found this roll of hemp rope."

Goldman sighed, "Well, hemp rope is the same, but it's not as pretty."

After saying this, he asked his attendants to help him tie the hemp rope to the beam.

It was the first time for several of them to do such a thing. In addition, the beams of the government office were not low, so they took a lot of work to finish it.

Just as Gao Sheng hung himself up, he heard shouts and gunshots from outside. It turned out that the Hui army had attacked the government office.

The attendant A and the student also hurriedly tried to hang themselves with hemp ropes, but before they could do so, the rebels rushed in.

Seeing someone hanging under the beam of the government hall, wearing a red official uniform, the leading captain immediately realized that this person was a high-ranking official, and immediately shouted: "Quick! Catch him alive!"

Goldman Sachs was already struggling at this time, and his consciousness began to blur.

Close follower A and his students also started hanging themselves. They had no time to react and were all caught by the incoming enemy troops.

Even Goldman Sachs did not die and was rescued by the rebel army.

Because Goldman was already unconscious, the captain of the army asked the others, "Who is this officer?"

The student and his two attendants remained silent.

The captain sneered, "You think I can't find out if you don't tell me?"

Then the captain went to look through the documents on the case in the hall.

The student snorted inwardly when he saw this: A low-level bandit soldier wants to understand the documents of our Great Chu? He really overestimates his own abilities.

Who knew that just as he said this, the captain of the army took out a document and smiled knowingly: "Oh, it turns out to be Gao Sheng, the cabinet minister of the Great Chu, the right commander of the Chu army this time. He is indeed a big fish. Our team has made a great contribution!"

The student was shocked. He never expected that a low-level officer could understand the documents that the cabinet ministers handled on a daily basis. It was incredible. You must know that in the Chu army, even among the middle-level generals there were many who were illiterate, and even fewer low-level generals could read.

What happened in the government office was just a microcosm of what happened after the Xi army entered Ruyang City. Various things were happening in other places.

It is said that Runing Prefecture was the birthplace of Xiong Chu, and its capital Ruyang was also governed to become one of the top three cities in Henan. In terms of city majesty and population size, it was only inferior to the two ancient capitals of Kaifeng and Luoyang.

At this time, there were five or six hundred thousand people in Ruyang City.

Because of the propaganda of the Chu court and local government, the people of Ruyang believed that the Hui army was a group of vicious and bloodthirsty pirates.

When they heard that the city had been breached, many people hid in their cellars or other hidden places, trembling with fear.

However, the people of Ruyang did not wait for the Hui army to break in, kill and loot. Instead, before the sun set, the sound of gunfire and fighting in the city stopped.

Then teams of imperial troops patrolled the streets, announcing temporary policies.

"Listen up, people of Ruyang. Ruyang City is ours. The city has been taken, and there are still many remnants of the Chu army, bandits and scoundrels in the city. To prevent them from taking advantage of the chaos to commit evil and harm innocent people, please keep your doors closed and don't go out unless it's important!"

"If you have any news about bandits or remnants of the Chu army, you can go to the street and report to the patrol team. Our army will reward you generously. If you encounter bandits in trouble, you can also ask the patrol team for help!"

"Our military will continue martial law for at least three days. Please save money on food and oil. If you have any difficulties, you can also ask the patrol team for help..."

Many Ruyang residents felt incredible when they heard the soldiers on the street beating gongs and loudly announcing temporary policies.

Not only did this bandit not burn, kill, or loot, he was actually so kind to them?
real or fake?

You must know that in the past few months, the Chu army has gathered in Ruyang, harassing and even looting the people. There have even been cases of decent women being raped by the Chu army.

The military discipline of the Chu army was so bad, but the bandits did not harm the people at all. Who was the official army and who was the bandit army?
Ruyang Prefecture Government Office.

Liu Sheng casually flipped through the documents on the desk, and occasionally he could gain insight into some secrets of the high-ranking officials of the Chu court.

For example, a memorial written by Goldman Sachs but not yet sent out asked Emperor Jiahua to carefully consider the issue of succession and not to learn from Song Huizong, who passed the buck and deceived himself.

'It's really interesting that Emperor Jiahua wants to learn from Emperor Huizong of Song and become the emperor emeritus, so as to avoid being labeled as the king who lost his country.'

Just as Liu Sheng continued to look through other documents, Crown Prince Liu Yu walked in after reporting.

"My son, I will meet my father."

"Yeah." Liu Sheng nodded and asked, "What's the situation in the city?"

Liu Yu said: "The small groups of Chu troops that resisted have been wiped out, and the rebellion in the city has been quelled. In addition, Chen Wan's body has also been collected according to the order of the emperor."

Liu Yu had made some contributions in the war, so Liu Sheng promoted him to be the military and political officer of the Tiger Guard Corps. However, as long as Liu Yu was by Liu Sheng's side, he was responsible for assisting him in handling some trivial matters in the army.

Liu Sheng put down the document and said, "I heard that the soldiers of Shengjiewei captured Gao Sheng, the right commander and cabinet minister of Dachu. Go and see how he is doing. If there is nothing serious, bring him here and I will have a chat with him."

"My son, take your orders!"

Not long after Liu Yu left, Goldman Sachs was brought over.

Goldman was tall and in good physical condition, so he woke up soon after he failed to hang himself and fell into a coma. Unfortunately, he was already a prisoner of the imperial army, so it was difficult for him to commit suicide.

Seeing Liu Sheng at this time, Gao Sheng took the initiative to ask: "Are you the thief leader Liu Sheng?"

Liu Yu heard this and shouted, "How dare you, a prisoner, disrespect my father?"

Liu Sheng didn't care much and said with a smile: "You are a minister of Chu, and I led the army to destroy Chu. You are right to call me the leader of the bandits."

Goldman Sachs was quite surprised to see Liu Sheng was so magnanimous and open-minded.

Then he said, "I heard that you are the remnants of the Tang Dynasty and have established a country overseas for many years. Why do you still want to invade our Great Chu?"

Liu Sheng said, "Since you are a minister of the Great Chu, you should know the situation of the Great Chu before. The people are living in misery and the rebels are everywhere. In this situation, even if our army does not come, how long can the Great Chu last?"

"Then the world would have to go through decades of war and tens of millions of civilian deaths before it could be unified and peace could be restored."

"If you really care about the people of this world, instead of the Xiong Chu family and their country, you should thank me, Dalai." (End of this chapter)
