The architectural layout of Suiye City is imitated from that of Chang'an City, similar to a Go chessboard, and is extremely regular and reasonable. After Moqizhi issued the order to demolish the houses near the city wall, within half an hour, many Tang people came to attack them.
Driven by the cavalry soldiers, they carried the boulder and walked towards the city head.
Because of the break with the Tang Dynasty, the Tuqishi people were always on guard against the Tang people in Suiye City, fearing that they would take the opportunity to rebel and defect to the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, before the Tianwei Tang army came to the pond, almost all the houses of the Tang people were destroyed by the Tuqi people.
Shi soldiers closely monitored the situation, and many Tang people who were considered spies were even executed in downtown areas without trial.
The harsh policies made the Tang people in the city miserable, but Tuqi Shiren was in power, and their sorrows had nothing to complain about. When Li Kuo led ten thousand Tianwei soldiers to Suiye, Tuqi Shiren
Realized the seriousness of the problem.
In panic, they naturally thought of these Tang people. In wartime, any living force must be used rationally. Maybe a huge stone can determine the outcome of a battle. After all, no one can say whether they will be
The last straw that broke the camel's back.
Belkin was ordered by Moqizhi to carry enough stones to the city within two hours for the soldiers to attack. He had been with Moqizhi for nearly ten years and knew the character of Tucker very well.
Although Tucker is relatively kind to his subordinates, he is very principled and will never regret what he says. If he does not transport enough stones within the specified time, hiss!
Bilkin spat on the ground and stomped on it: "Bah, why do you say such depressing words!"
"Asr, Luo Er, you take people to the west of the city to have a look. If there are suitable stones, quickly transport them to me. If you don't have enough manpower, go and grab them. This is in wartime, even Master Tianfang has to help me when necessary.
Work! Broken Leaf City does not support idle waste!"
After surviving the fierce game, Bilkin didn't want his head to be chopped off by Tucker and hung on the city wall as a warning to the generals, so he had to turn the pressure to his subordinates: "I have delegated the power to you.
But if you can’t get the quantity of stones I need after half an hour, huh, don’t blame me, Belkin, for being ruthless!”
Bilkin glanced at the two people nearby and gave stern instructions.
"Hey, hey, don't worry, don't worry!"
Asir's grin was as wide as naan bread, occupying most of his cheek: "Isn't it just a stone? I promise to get it for you!"
"Yes, we will definitely get it for you. At that time, at that time, can you give us, hey, a nice word in front of Tucker!" Luo Er took the lead and nodded to Bilkin with a charming smile.
.
"You kid, you are only thinking about good things!" He glared at Luo Er angrily, and Bilkin sighed: "First finish the things I told you, or else I will cut off your limbs and throw them away.
Feed the wolves in the valley!"
"Hiss!" Luo Er gasped. Although he greeted the Belkin family woman in his heart, his face was extremely flattering: "Look what you said, even if we deal with everyone, we don't dare to deal with you.
We will go now, we will go now!"
After saying that, Luo Er pulled Asr and led dozens of his men towards the west of the city.
Similar to Chang'an City, Suiye City is also rich in the east and low in the west. Most of the people living in the east city are Tuqishi nobles or missionaries of the Tianfang Sect. There are also a handful of extremely wealthy merchants who bought status symbols from the lord of Suiye City.
Tiepai bought a mansion in the extremely prestigious Dongcheng.
As for Xicheng, it is mostly a place where poor people live. Everyone who lives in Suiye City knows that this place is the most chaotic place in the city. Casinos, brothels, and almost all the dirty places you can think of are here. Xicheng raised his eyes. Since there is no curfew in Suiye City, after nightfall, many thieves and habitual bandits who do business without capital will guard some important intersections, waiting for their prey to take the bait.
Ordinary people are often robbed by thieves late at night. If the robbed person resists a little, it will lead to tragedy of murder and robbery. However, because most of the victims are Li Te people or Tang people with no status, the case In the end it often comes to nothing.
Such differential treatment will inevitably lead to wild speculations among the people in the city, and some may even think that these bandits are made up by people from the Moqi tribe of Suiye City. You must know that this Tuqi Shitak succeeded to the Tuqi Shi clan leader and In just a few months after becoming the lord of Suiye City, he tried his best to suppress the Tang people and Li Te people, even more aggressively than his father.
Based on this analysis, if he secretly sent some tribesmen to rob the Tang people and Li Te people, who would dare to judge them according to law?
Over time, even some kind-hearted Turkic herders looked down on the Tang people in the west of the city and deliberately kept a distance from them.
Yuan Zhuo was such a Tang Dynasty man.
He lives in Yushanfang, which is adjacent to the city wall of the West City. In Dashi terms, it is within Sancher Street.
He was originally a merchant who came to the Western Regions to make a living in the late Kaiyuan Dynasty. Unexpectedly, he met Danasha, a beautiful and kind-hearted Li Tehu girl in Suiye City. Danasha not only helped Yuan Zhuo sell all the goods on hand, He made a lot of money and even invited Yuan Zhuo to his home.
Over time, Yuan Zhuo developed feelings for the kind and beautiful Danasha. After more than ten days of suffering, he finally mustered up the courage to express his love to Danasha. What Yuan Zhuo did not expect was that Danasha He also had a good impression of him, and the two formed a good relationship. After having a family, Yuan Zhao simply stayed in Suiye City and opened a tea shop in Xicheng, reselling tea from Chang'an and reselling the difference. .
Although the shop was not big, selling tea was extremely profitable. Over the past ten years, Yuan Zhuo also had his own house and servants. What makes Yuan Zhuo most happy is that he now enjoys a high reputation among the Tang people in Suiye City. , can almost respond to a hundred responses. Although he is still the humblest Tang citizen in Suiye City's official status, in Yuan Zhuo's own opinion, with such a stable life, he has nothing to complain about.
"Uncle Yuan, uncle Yuan, go and get away. I heard that the Tuqishi people are searching for spies all over the city. When they saw the Tang people's faces, they didn't care about their faces. First they beat you hard. Then they beat you. Dun, I’ll lock you up again and do the hard work of demolishing the house!”
The one who opened the door was Bai, the shopkeeper of the satin shop next door. Because of his obesity, shopkeeper Bai walked with a twist, like a plump white silkworm.
"Brother Bai, look how anxious you are. How many times have Tuqishi people screamed in the past few years? In the end, it was nothing. You listen to me, go home quickly, and do whatever you have to do. Oh my god, it's collapsed. Don’t come down!”
