Chu Dang carried Wang Zichao and ran all the way straight to the place where Fan Li was ambushing.
Suddenly, an ambush suddenly appeared, and a war drum thundered. Seeing this, the defeated soldiers turned back to fight. Wang Zichao got down from Chu Dang, commanding him calmly and without any confusion.
Gong Jun wanted to capture Wang Zichao, but because Wang Zichao had looked so embarrassed in front of the battle before, when he saw the other side counterattacking head on, he was killed and caught off guard.
The situation also reversed. Gong Jian was afraid that the city gate would be lost, so he immediately offered money to withdraw his troops. However, at this time, most of the people chasing outside had been entangled by their opponents, and it was too late to withdraw.
On the other side, Sun Wu led the charge car around the battlefield and directly chose to attack the city. The five hundred strong archers, under the cover of Sun Wu, also rushed under the city tower at this moment, so they immediately fired a burst of rockets into the city. For a while, the city walls and the city were on fire, and there was a chaos.
Sun Wu took the lead, escorted the chariot to the city gate, and began to ram the city gate. Although the city gate was strong, under the impact of the chariot, even the city wall beside the gate was hit with several cracks. After a while, he The city gate was broken.
The soldiers filed in. When Gong Jian saw that the situation was over, he thought of escaping, but it was too late. Sun Wu's sword was already placed on his shoulder...
The battle was a complete victory. Wang Zichao entered the city with Li Ran and settled down temporarily in Gong Jian's mansion. The capital was originally a foothold for Wang Zichao before, and there were many people inside who were his old troops. They appeared one after another at this moment. There were also some people who took advantage of the situation and came to worship Wang Zichao.
】
The Prince's Dynasty naturally continued to use the old troops, but for those who took advantage of the situation, they used them separately, and immediately gathered the remaining soldiers to appease the people in the city.
Li Ran felt relieved when he saw that Wang Zichao was handling things well.
Sun Wu led Gong Jian to Wang Zichao and Li Ran, and forced them to kneel down. Wang Zichao said to Shen for a moment:
"Gong Jian, as a doctor of Zhou Zongqing, you are not loyal to me, Zhou Zong, but you collude with the Shan family and the Liu family and collude with each other! Do you know what the crime should be?!"
Gong Jian laughed.
"Hmph! It's just a moment! You have committed the crime below and caused chaos in the Zhou Dynasty. I'm afraid you are not qualified to make irresponsible remarks in front of Gong!"
Prince Chao was furious.
"Gong Jian! Everyone knows how my father is doing in court! Even if you are confusing right and wrong here, what's the use?"
"Hmph! Although you are the eldest son of the concubine, you are not the legitimate son. Even if the late king loves you again, he wants to make you the crown prince. This is purely false! Although you have won a small victory today, it will not be able to block the long-lasting love of the people in the world. Everyone! And you committed rebellion, and the viciousness of your intentions is beyond description!"
"Although I am not the eldest son, my brother has died of illness many years ago. As the saying goes, 'If there is a legitimate son, there is no legitimate eldest son.' I am the eldest son, so why can't I be the eldest son? Moreover, my father was killed for no reason. Shan and Liu I'm afraid you won't be able to escape your responsibility! If you help Zhou to commit evil, you should be punished for your crime! Come on, push him out and behead him in public!"
Wang Zichao gave an order, and two soldiers came up immediately to push Gong Jian down, but at this time Gong Jian was not afraid.
"Hahaha! Ji Chao! What you are facing is definitely not just the Shan family and the Liu family. Your defeat is also foreseeable. You... you will die without a burial place!"
When Li Ran heard what Gong Jian said, his heart couldn't help but move.
"Your Highness, please wait a moment!"
Wang Zichao looked at Li Ran strangely.
"Oh? What's your advice, sir?"
"For no other reason, Li Ran wants to talk to Mr. Gong alone. I wonder if His Highness can agree?"
Wang Zichao didn't think much about it, so he just waved his hand and said:
"Since Sir has this intention, how can the court not allow it? Then just leave his head on his neck, Sir, please help yourself."
So Sun Wu took Gong Jianshi to the backyard, and Li Ran also said goodbye to Wang Zichao and came to the backyard. But at this time, Gong Jian still had an unruly look on his face.
"Li Ran, I know what you are going to do. If you want to know anything from me, that is wishful thinking. Even though Jian is a defeated general, there is nothing more to say. Just kill him if you want! Humph, if I Once he dies, that prince will be convicted of the crime of killing Zhou Zong's old ministers without permission, let's see what appearance he can have in the future to succeed to the throne!"
Li Ran said calmly:
"Haha, sir, please calm down! It's just...even if I send you back immediately, I'm afraid the people behind you won't let you go, right?!"
In fact, Li Ran vaguely guessed Gong Jian's identity as a secret trader from his previous words. However, Li Ran deliberately hid his clumsiness and did not point it out directly.
He knew very well that Gong Jian was a high official beside Zhou Wanggui, so he and Shan Qi were in the same spirit. Nowadays, it is normal to take orders from the Shan family.
In his opinion, since Shan Qi, Liu Di and others are all undercover. So how can the Master Gong in front of him get away with it?
After hearing this, Gong Jian was obviously stunned:
"How do you know that?"
Li Ran couldn't help but sneered when he heard this:
"Do you think the Dark Walkers can cover the sky with just one hand? Can what they do be hidden from others? During the Song Dynasty, although the Dark Walkers can't be said to be a complete defeat, they are definitely not smooth. The final result may not be as expected. Bar!"
Gong Jian looked a little confused when he heard what Li Ran said:
"Hmph! Shuzi will frame it! What does the chaos in the Song Dynasty have to do with me? I only know that the Shan family can check and balance the royal family and ensure peace for my Gong family. As for the rest, I don't know anything about it."
Li Ran was startled when he heard this, but then he understood immediately.
It turns out that although Gong Jian is also a member of the Dark Walkers, he only obeys Shan Qi's orders, and he doesn't care about the others.
For someone like Shan Qi, he could win over the powerful ministers of the Zhou Dynasty internally and contact other allies and foreigners externally. This was obviously the responsibility of the Seven Lords of the Secret Army.
"Your Excellency, you don't know about the chaos in the Song Dynasty, but Shan and Liu killed the King of Zhou, so you have to know it, right? Since I have seen through your identity as a secret agent, why should I cover it up for them? I have always known the tricks of the underworld, and if you go back now, you will be harmed by them. In that case, why don’t you just abandon the secret and turn to the light?"
Li Ran said it with certainty, and indeed he had some confidence. When it came to Qingfeng, Li Ran failed to keep his word and tried his best to save Qingfeng. But after all, that was because King Chu Ling had his own ideas at that time. Although what Li Ran said at the time was reasonable, in order to boost the morale of the army, King Chu Ling finally decided to kill Qingfeng Jiqi.
Today's Wang Zi Dynasty is completely different from the situation of King Chu Ling at that time. King Chu Ling was very high-spirited and vigorous at that time, but the prince had just breathed a sigh of relief today, so he must have obeyed Li Ran's words.
Moreover, the information on Gong Jian is still extremely useful. Whether it is the situation of Chengzhou, the understanding of the Shan family and the Liu family, plus his identity as a secret traveler, if we can learn a lot of information from him, it will be of great benefit to the prince when he joins Chengzhou in the future. of.
Gong Jian laughed loudly.
"Now that Jane is defeated, how can she have the face to survive in this world?"
Gong Jian's words are correct. In fact, it is not that he does not want to surrender, but that his family is in the hands of Dan Qi. Gong Jian's fiefdom is not in the capital, but in Gong. He came to the capital to station here because of his instructions. Came here on special order.
Li Ran wanted to continue asking Gong Jian if he had any secrets, but Fan Li came to report that Gan Loach had led an army of 20,000 people and was currently besieging Jingyi!
Li Ran glanced at Gong Jian and guessed that his family might have been kidnapped by the dark gang. Now that Gan Loach was attacking again, he refused to reveal anything.
Li Ran had no choice but to order Gong Jian to be imprisoned first, and then came to the front hall. Wang Zichao had already received his revenge and was a little anxious.
"Your Highness, there is no need to be alarmed. Twenty thousand people are about to attack the city. This is by no means an easy task. We just need to be careful to prevent the inner ghosts from surrendering to the enemy and offering the city. If we can frustrate Gan Loach again, then we will be able to take over Chengzhou soon!"
Li Ran's very confident words convinced Wang Zichao and everyone present that they really needed to stabilize the situation now. After all, they had just entered the city and there were still many things to deal with, and Li Ran was like a sea-fixing needle, making people feel extremely calm as long as he was there.
"Sir, can you take Gong Jian to the city wall and behead him in public to frustrate the enemy?!"
Wang Zichao asked.
