At this time, a large number of consumers appeared on the streets of Fuso.
They always thought that they would be slaves in the future, and the money in their homes might be taken away by the people of the Tang Dynasty anyway. When the Tang Dynasty occupied Goguryeo, no one had any private property. Except for the clothes on their bodies and the farm tools in their hands, everything they had was the asset of the Tang Dynasty.
So they think that we should spend all the money now. When we have spent all the money, the people of the Tang Dynasty can do whatever they want to us. Anyway, there will be no regrets at that time.
At first, this idea was very good, but soon the restaurant where they wanted to drink and eat meat refused to accommodate them. The restaurant owner didn't want to continue the business at the end of the day. What's the point of making so much money? All this money was earned for the Tang Dynasty and would never reach their own hands in the end.
So they just closed the door and let their family enjoy themselves. The same idea was shared with other shops. As a result, within dozens of hours after the announcement, most of the shops in Fuso Capital were closed and all kinds of things were interrupted.
Including many soldiers in the army, they were unwilling to go for drill, and even more unwilling to go to the streets to maintain order. The worst that could happen was that they would burn down the entire city. It would not belong to us anyway. In the future, it would all belong to the Tang Dynasty. The more chaotic the city was, the better.
This trend spread quickly. At first, it was only among the common people, but soon it spread to the government offices and then to the imperial palace. When the emperor discovered this situation, many of his palace maids ran away.
Originally, these people had no chance to go home. Since the Tang Dynasty was about to occupy this place, why should we still be here guarding this job? It would be better to go out and see our parents.
As for the guards in the palace, originally it was a matter of honor for the whole family for them to be able to do this job, but now they don't have this idea anymore. When the Tang army arrives, we will be no different from those fishermen outside. We are all slaves of the Tang Dynasty.
So now we don’t have to be so conscientious. If anyone wants to run away from the palace, that’s their own business. We won’t care about it and can just turn a blind eye.
At the beginning, everyone was just a little lazy, but soon this situation became unacceptable. Some people have nothing and are just gangsters on the streets. When the government is in charge, they dare not do anything too excessive. Now the government doesn't care about anything. If we don't kill, burn, and rob, how can we be worthy of our status?
So on the morning of the third day, shouting was heard from some places in the capital, accompanied by bursts of thick smoke. It was only then that the Fuso court felt that something was wrong and that they had to suppress these people.
If we let them destroy the capital, then when the Tang people come, we can only hand over a ruined capital to the Tang Dynasty. Will His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty be willing to do that? He will definitely take it out on these officials.
So under the emperor's order, officials from all walks of life brought their last confidants to maintain public order in the capital. Anyone who wanted to cause trouble would be killed immediately.
These people are usually very dignified, so they quickly maintained public order in the capital. However, this also buried the seeds of great bad consequences, because those who caused trouble were killed. If the law was sound, these people could only blame themselves for their bad luck. But now many troops have fled, and they also think that their chance has come. These officials and their subordinates cannot stop us, so we should rise up.
On the third night, a large-scale conflict broke out in the capital of Fuso. One side of the conflict was naturally the royal family who wanted to maintain order, and the other side was naturally the unstable factors on the streets.
Originally, it was impossible for these two gangs to get together. After all, these street thugs would stay away from the royal family members, for fear that they would make mistakes and be dragged away by the royal family members to practice swordsmanship.
Now they have nothing to worry about. The entire Fusang will be a large slave gathering place in the future. No matter if you are a royal family member or a street thug like me, the end result for everyone will be the same, that is, to farm for the landlords of the Tang Dynasty.
So what is there to be afraid of? There is no end in sight in this life, so we might as well fight for it now. Maybe we can create another life.
The two sides fought a fierce battle on the main streets of the capital. At the beginning, the gangsters were able to gain the upper hand, but soon this group of rabble could not hold on. Under the leadership of the emperor, thousands of people were directly killed and the rest were all captured. Only then was the situation in the capital stabilized.
However, this incident also made Ding Jiayong realize that the royal family would soon lose control of the capital. Their majesty was falling too quickly. Originally, we thought they could still help us control the capital, but we didn't expect that the Goguryeo incident made many people in Fuso lose hope. In the absence of hope, they can do anything.
The facts were similar to what Ding Jiayong had thought. That night, the high-ranking officials of Fuso arrived on the Tang Dynasty's naval warship. They hoped that Tang could come forward to appease the local people, otherwise the chaos would become more and more serious, and in the end it was very likely that the entire capital would be set on fire. The Tang Dynasty court would not want to see a capital in ruins.
When these people were talking, they may not have noticed the change in their identities. Originally, they were in an opposition to the Tang army, but now, for their own safety, they have unnaturally become subordinates of the Tang army.
Of course, there is no way around it. If the mobs in the city riot again, they will be the first targets of revenge. In the eyes of the common people, your court has failed to protect our country and now turns people all over the country into slaves. You still want to control us. Who else should we kill if not you?
Moreover, less than 60% of Fuso's army was left, and they had no strength to suppress these mobs. The only thing they could think of was the Tang army stationed in the harbor.
