Everyone sighed, frowning, the old people sighed, although some children were making noise and thought it was lively and fun, some were sitting in the car, looking around with curious eyes, and some children had already Sleepy, but had to follow the adults, yawning and making noise, or crying constantly.

Amidst such sounds, many men and women shed tears, sighed, and talked a lot, wondering when they would be able to restore peace and live a stable and peaceful life again.

Even if he suffers from hardships and can't eat wine and meat several times a year, it is better than being displaced like this, fleeing to other people's land.

"Oh, my generation is incompetent, and the people of the whole city are exhausted to death."

Hearing some complaints, Sun Chengzong burst into tears. The 76-year-old man cried bitterly at the city gate. [

Originally, people in the Secret Service like Ma Sanbiao and Li Sangou were hard-hearted. They were originally hard-hearted and ruthless characters. up.

So they don't respect old people like Sun Chengzong, and they don't think there is anything special about them.

At this time, seeing the old man's appearance, Ma Sanbiao sighed slightly when he thought about the identity of the other party, and said softly to the people around him: "If all the high officials in the court love the people like Mr. Sun Ge, How could the world get to where it is now?"

"No, no wonder our lord attaches great importance to this old man and sent us to welcome him."

"En." Ma Sanbiao nodded, and said with a high air: "This is also a dangerous job for us. The road is full of small roads, woodlands, rivers, and big roads. It is hard to say whether we will encounter large groups of Tartars." Zi Youqi, or someone with ulterior motives, the adults sent us here, and they are very trustworthy, fortunately, we have done this job very beautifully."

"It's not over until I bring Mr. Sun Ge back to Fushan."

Zhu Wangli urged the Sun family members to quickly help Sun Chengzong to sit in a mule cart, and then rode the horse back. He first gave the horse three marks, and then said: "Let's go quickly, in case the Tartars have another team of rangers Let the whistle come over, this fun is enough."

As he said that, he beat the horses and left first, and the people who led the horse team protected Sun Chengzong and the members of the Sun family to leave first.

After a few hours, they will chase after them, and they will easily catch up with the front team.

They stayed in the city and continued to urge the people to leave the city. At dawn, after making sure that there was no one in the city, they took some of the people left behind and sprinkled tung oil and other fire starters everywhere. Before leaving the city, they threw The torches lit the yamen, school palaces, and houses of some wealthy families first, and then the wind took advantage of the fire. After they left the city, the entire Gaoyang City was in flames.

"It's not fun to do this job." Seeing the fire in the city, some villagers couldn't help crying. Li Sangou and others also shook their heads and sighed, "It's really sad to burn your own house."

"What nonsense." Ma Sanbiao stared and said, "This is your lord's idea. If the walls are cleared everywhere, and the cities are burned everywhere, even if they can't beat the Tartar soldiers, they won't be able to get people and food. They are running in vain. Once you go, don’t you want to come next time? When someone comes, you can snatch it once. Your house is built for others, and the pig is raised for others. That’s not a good taste.”
