"You foolish king! My son has been loyal to you for half his life. During his military career, even if he didn't have any merit, he still had to work hard! The peace in the north is only given to you? The stability of the country is not given to you? Why don't you? But I am suspicious of him in every possible way, and I have listened to the slanders, so I must kill him to death. Don't blame me for being unjust today, it's because you were unkind first!"
Wang Dan scolded Tan Jun while beating him, and poured out his anger for the sheep.
"As the father of General Zhao, you have just failed to teach your son well. As a result, his loyalty to me is inconsistent."
Tan Jun still beats and scolds without fail, and his sword moves become more and more fierce!
With a curse and a wound, they watched the two sides fight for several rounds. In the ratio of "two to one", Wang Dan and Piao Li did not have the upper hand, and the ministers had exhausted all kinds of methods. They threw or smashed them, but they couldn't hurt Wang Dan and the others at all.
While there was a stalemate in the palace, half of the guards outside the palace were killed or wounded, and the remaining half rushed in to help Tan Zi.
The strength of the two sides was immediately obvious: Wang Dan and Piaoli were increasingly at a disadvantage.
After Tan Jun's "happy" killing, his body was stained with blood.
At this time, a messenger ran in from outside and reported urgently: The prison over there in Yuantu was robbed, and Yang Zhen was being rescued by a "student army" from "Rongxiang".
There were many soldiers coming and they were well prepared. The "Warden" was injured and fell unconscious. The others could not resist him and had already made them run out for half a mile. Now the officers and soldiers are chasing him.
"Report——!"
Another report came, and another messenger ran in, saying: There is a Zaofu merchant army led by Hunxi in the north of the hall, and they are setting fire to the palace.
Inside and outside the palace, there was a sea of fire and ice knives everywhere!
For a time, it was hard to tell the winner.
At this moment, the arrows in Wang Dan's sleeves were empty, and the silver needles in Piaolion's hands were exhausted.
The situation is getting more and more serious for them.
The two of them were standing back to back, preparing for a final battle to the death with their bare hands.
At this moment, a team entered the palace!
No one thought that this strange army actually came from Xiang Xu, who sent an army from the Song Dynasty as a gift. Unexpectedly, it played a role at this critical moment.
The army led by the Song envoy immediately took Wang Dan and Piaoliong away from the palace. They threw away the gifts without being polite and withdrew immediately.
Tan Zi watched helplessly as they both retreated, and even with the pain all over his body, he was unable to get on his horse and chase after them.
"Don't chase the poor bandits!"
He had no choice but to give up.
It was only by chance that Xiang Xu was able to send this team.
At first, he was just following the trend, seeing messengers from other countries coming to give gifts to Tan Zi. But for the Song Dynasty, he was in a neutral position and really wanted to choose a suitable and stable heir to the Tan country between General Zhao and Tan Zi to persuade him. He believes that the most valuable thing is to stop the troops and make a truce so that the "strategy of killing troops" advocated by him is not destroyed and the relationship between countries is balanced.
Based on his old acquaintance with Wang Dan and Yang Zhen, to be honest, he was biased, so he told the messenger in advance: If there was a conflict between two parties, one party should be protected and the other party should be sent away, so that neither party would be offended.
It is said that Yang Zhen was taken out of the Wontu death row by Kan Yu's student army.
Of course, to be honest, without the secret help of the "warden", how could the escape be so smooth!
The warden was also smart. Seeing that Yang Zhen was rescued, in order to get through the situation, he stabbed himself several times and pretended to faint.
In the battle against the rebels who wanted to surrender to General Zhao and revolt in the city, the various branches of the army did not gain any advantage. After three days and three nights of fighting, the army was severely defeated, and they each temporarily stopped fighting to rest.
When Yang Zhen and his horse team were halfway through, the chariot with Cong Cong to greet him was already waiting for him halfway.
They expected to flee to the Song Dynasty, because Xiang Xu had already agreed to provide them with a place to stay and reunite them with the female family members who had gone there before.
Since he wants to escape, he has no choice but to give up on the remaining cities that still have the "call" flag.
But the people in the city did not agree.
When the carriage carrying Yang Zhen, along with a group of people, hurriedly passed through the feudal city, the common people discovered from a distance that it was their "General Zhao" in the carriage, so they all came out and knelt down on the roadside, pleading. He does not abandon them.
Faced with the men, women, old and children in this city, they all worshiped him and screamed at the sky. They all knelt on the roadside. Yang Zhen's heart softened. He could no longer move a step and went to the Song Dynasty to live an ignoble life.
"Aunt Cong! Please take me to take good care of my wife, Zhongyou, take good care of my brother, and say to my aunt: 'My son is unfilial and can no longer support the elderly!' Let Luyuan Girl take care of me in the future. I take good care of our mother and father. For the people who support me here, I will use everything I have, including my life, to protect them!"
Yang Zhen explained to Cong Cong A Niang.
"Silly boy! It's better to go back to your parents. These people are not your family. They will care about you when they get better. If they get better, you won't be the only one who will kill them to pay for their lives!"
Congcong persuaded with earnest words.
"I know! Although it is like this, in life, you must do something from your heart. Let me listen to what is in your heart. I have a responsibility and concern for the people here. Please forgive me for not being able to agree to go to Song Dynasty with you."
Yang Zhen insisted and said.
Chongchong's eyes were filled with tears. Looking at Yang Zhen's determined eyes, she had no choice but to sigh. She sat on the carriage and said:
"Yi Ga, on behalf of your parents, you bow to me and you have fulfilled your filial piety!
The sheep's cup was filled with tears. Facing his mother-in-law, he knelt down hard and kowtowed three times earnestly. He touched the ground with his forehead, ringing like a bell, and shouted:
"I wish my parents long life and good health!"
All the hard work was in vain! As a result, Yang Zhen was introduced to Fengcheng by everyone.
Congcong had no choice but to take Kanyu's army to meet Wang Dan and Piaoli.
The direction they went to meet them happened to cross with the Song army's troops holding Wang Dan and Piao Liong.
They never thought that Dr. Song Xiangxu would also come to rescue Wang Dan and the others.
Going to the capital again, the military defense has been strengthened. They disguised themselves as civilians and searched for several days, but they could not find the whereabouts of Wang Dan and the others. Finally, I heard that he was taken away by the Song Army and happened to pass by them!
Helpless, they had no choice but to advance towards the Song Dynasty under the leadership of Kan Yu.
Half of the student army brought by Kan Yu were killed or injured in this battle, and the remaining people were also deeply shocked: after all, training in school and life and death in reality are completely different situations.
