The army was defeated like a mountain.
Half a day, just half a day, Xiangyang was defeated across the board. This scene also fell into the eyes of Song Zhe on the other side. However, because of the agreement with King Ping, he could not make any mistakes and could only watch the British army occupy Xiangyang City.
"Why is it so pustular?"
He muttered, feeling incredible.
After fighting for so many days, he never crossed the Han River. King Ying captured Xiangyang in just half a day.
"Feihu, I think that the British king has taken Xiangyang and is afraid that he will cross the river to attack me. Go down quickly and order all ships to be on guard and avoid any mistakes!"
Song Zhe soon realized the seriousness of the situation. Looking at it now, if the British king captured Xiangyang, the next step would be to cross the river in order to meet up with Lin Zhijing. In this way, with the two armies united, their momentum would be unstoppable. !
Lin Feihu nodded, turned around and went out.
…
Here, Gui Yunzheng led a group of soldiers and entered Prince Ping's Mansion again.
As soon as they entered the door, they saw a large crowd kneeling in the courtyard. They were all the female relatives and family members that Prince Ping had not been able to take away. Among them was the princess whom Prince Ping wanted to marry Gui Yunzheng. At this moment, they were all so frightened that their legs were trembling.
"Everyone, get up! You guys, each of the slaves will receive twenty taels of silver with their tattoos. From now on, they will no longer be slaves and go home. As for the royal family members, each of them will receive fifty taels of silver with their tattoos. From now on, they will be common people. So, That’s great!”
Gui Yunzheng quickly cut through the mess and quickly came up with a plan.
This announcement made these people all happy and shouted "Long live the King of England". Even the delicate princess wiped away her tears, came to Gui Yunzheng and said a long blessing.
"Princess, to be honest, I should call you sister. But now that the war has begun, many things are no longer controlled by others. You are a golden branch, and I can't bear to fall into the hands of the people. In this way, I The king promises you to stay in this palace, give me two maids, and have soldiers to protect you, how about that?"
Gui Yunzheng finally couldn't bear it. After thinking about it for a while, he didn't have the nerve to drive the princess out of the palace. After all, there is no need to burden women with matters between men.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
The princess said another long blessing.
This matter is finally settled.
Then, a group of people walked into the living room and sat down on both sides in order. It was really a room filled with talents.
"Brothers, since we left Chang'an, our journey has been smooth and smooth. So far, we have successfully realized our original plan. All this depends on our brothers not avoiding life and death and working hard. In Now, I won’t say much. Your achievements are all recorded in the merit book! I promise that I will never favor one over another. Now that Xiangyang has fallen, the top priority is to quickly calm the people and strengthen the city defense. , especially to guard against the attack of the navy from the other side, of course, I guess they don’t have the guts!”
Having said this, Guiyun Zhenggu's face was like a spring breeze, and all the soldiers also laughed heartily.
Indeed, there is nothing more satisfying than winning a battle, not to mention taking down Xiangyang City, which has been easy to defend and difficult to attack since ancient times!
"General Xu, what's going on with General Zhang and General Wu?"
Gui Yunzheng looked at Xu Lang and asked.
"Report to the King of England that Zhang Da fell into the city and died when the city was breached. General Wu was captured at the end of his strength and is now being held in the General Military Mansion, awaiting your fate."
Xu Lang quickly got out of the queue and reported the truth.
"Oh, this Tatsuya is considered a loyal minister of the generation. It's a pity that this love was wrongly paid! However, the military general is somewhat capable in water battles. It is indeed rare to be able to resist the Northern Army for many days. General. We can't let such a person die!"
Gui Yunzheng said, looking at Qi Fei intentionally or unintentionally.
What a clever person Qi Fei is?
This glance immediately made him lose his mind.
