On the far other side, Yecheng, Chu State.
Chu Ba really led hundreds of soldiers, fully armed, out of the civilian city.
They all held weapons and headed south from the main road.
Along the way, many civilians who were not afraid of death stood on both sides and shouted for them to practice. These civilians were full of patriotic enthusiasm. Seeing Chu Ba leading people to avenge the martyrs, they couldn't help but feel inspired. In addition to enthusiastic civilians, there are also many special civilians. They are all family members of soldiers, and they have been worried about where their family members and soldiers are.
They chanted the names of family members and soldiers, but received basically no response. These soldiers on the main road can only be regarded as the tip of the iceberg among the hundreds of thousands of Chu troops. These family members still don't know that nearly half of their family members' soldiers were killed in the battle, and many others are in Don'er City.
Of course, among these hundreds of people, there were actually family members of civilians, but they did not come forward to respond to the civilians' cries. On the one hand, they are ready to die for their country. On the other hand, Liejun will not attack civilians and does not reunite with his family just to distance themselves from each other.
The Liejun patrolling along the way retreated or took a detour when they saw such a large formation. They knew that most of these hundreds of people were people with relatively high combat power, and even one-third were at the general level.
It was clear that this was going to be a tough fight.
The goal of Chu Ba and others is also very clear, that is the South City Gate.
Then you are the place with the largest number of martyrs, with nearly 50,000 to 60,000 troops stationed there, and Luo Erhu should also be there.
The person Chu Ba is looking for now is Luo Erhu.
Luo Erhu was not a fool either. He had already set up an ambush near the gate of Nancheng, and once Chu Ba and others arrived, he would surround them.
On the other side, Jiang Ze got the latest news about Yecheng from letters.
After reading Luo Erhu's letter, Jiang Ze looked solemn and worried.
Li Xiuwen was a little curious and asked: "What happened? Let me see it too?"
"Take a look." Jiang Ze handed over the letter.
After Li Xiuwen read it, he was not worried and was very happy.
"Brother, isn't this a good thing? King Chu is dead, Chu Ba has collapsed, and he is leading all the remnants to take revenge. Second brother can just kill them all."
"It is indeed possible to catch them all in one fell swoop, but the price will not be small. The hundreds of people led by Chu Ba are all the best among the best. Basically, they all have special skills, and more than half of them are people with super powers."
"Loss is inevitable, but as long as we eliminate them all, we will be done with it once and for all."
"However, if they die like this, it must be said to be a waste. These people are patriotic heroes who regard death as home, and have been supported by countless civilians. If they are willing to surrender, wouldn't that be a good thing?"
"Brother, I know that you cherish your talents now, and I also know that you are promoting benevolent government. However, these people are old stubborns. They are willing to abandon their wives and children and follow Chu Ba to rebel. This is putting life and death at risk. They I won’t surrender at all, and even if I surrender, it will still be a hidden danger. Instead of doing this, it’s better to kill a hundred of them to avoid future troubles.”
"Xiuwen, I haven't seen you for so long. I didn't expect you to grow up a lot." Jiang Ze smiled.
"Brother, what do you mean? Is there something in your words?"
"No, actually everything you said is right, very right. Although it is regrettable, there is nothing we can do about it. Get ready, we will mobilize a hundred super elites to help your second brother." Jiang Ze patted Li Xiuwen on the shoulder. .
"okay."
"Chen Ling, Gu Nian, is it okay to leave Dong'er City to you?"
"Of course it's no problem. Haven't these Chu soldiers already removed their armor? Now even hot weapons with mass damage can threaten their lives, so they don't dare to mess around." Chen Ling said confidently.
On the other side, in the capital of Zhao Kingdom, in the palace hall, on the throne of King Zhao.
Ao Lie sat on it and looked down, showing an extremely satisfied smile.
It turned out that Zhao Lin had been captured at this time and was brought in front of Ao Lie.
"Zhao Lin, Zhao Lin, I have been arresting you for several months. Today I finally caught you. Do you accept it?"
"How could I be convinced? If I hadn't been betrayed, why would I be like this?" Zhao Lin said angrily.
"As the saying goes, he who knows the current affairs is a wise man, and your subordinates are wiser than you."
"Fuck you."
"I know you are in a bad mood right now, so I will forgive your rude remarks for the time being. I am escorting you here today just in the hope that you will surrender. I also issued an announcement asking Zhao Yongheng to lead the remaining remaining soldiers and surrender. I guarantee that you will enjoy glory, wealth, and honor. Endless."
"Sorry, in my dictionary, Zhao Lin, there is no word surrender."
"How come there is no word surrender in the dictionary? If not, then the dictionary printed it wrong. Since it was printed wrong, why not correct it? Why keep making the same mistake again and again?"
"I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you. If you want to kill or behead me, I'll leave it to you."
"Zhao Lin, why are you so stubborn? Zhao Guodu has become like this, why do you still persist? Do you know that if you had surrendered earlier, the capital would not have been in such a mess. It's all because of you, at least there is More than 100,000 innocent civilians were implicated."
"You fart, don't put your shit basin on my head. It was your inability to discipline that caused your subordinates to do whatever you wanted. You didn't treat civilians as human beings. Many women were even secretly captured and used as comfort women. Just you. How can I hand over Zhao State to you for such a person, so I will fight to the end, to the end!" Zhao Lin shouted indignantly.
"If you hadn't led the remnants of the Zhao army to make moves every day, wouldn't I have managed this city well? If you had surrendered earlier, those civilians would not have been incited."
"That's enough. It's useless to talk more. I, Zhao Lin, will never surrender."
"Really? Someone is here."
Following Ao Lie's order, a dozen women with children were escorted forward by the soldiers. They cried and called Zhao Lin's name.
Zhao Lin was shocked when he saw them: "Why are you here? Didn't you move long ago?"
"I put a lot of effort into catching your family members." Ao Lie said proudly.
"If you have anything to do with me, what's the point of arresting them?"
"Zhao Lin, I didn't want to use this despicable method. However, you really don't want to continue to waste it. As long as you surrender, I will return them to you, and I will also guarantee that you will have no worries about food and clothing in the future. How about it?"
"I...I...I can't do it." Zhao Lin gritted his teeth and roared.
"Really stubborn." Ao Lie waved his hand, and the body of one of the women exploded instantly and turned into a pool of blood. The soldier who was holding down the woman was also startled. This happened too suddenly. One second she was fine, but the next second she was splattered with blood.
The other women were frightened and struggled, but they were held down by the soldiers and could not move.
"Ao Lie, you will not die a happy death." Zhao Lin shouted angrily.
"Let me ask you one last time, will you surrender or not?" Ao Lie almost ran out of patience and raised his hand again.
"Okay, I surrender, I surrender."
"That's right."
"Let me go."
"Okay, okay, okay."
Ao Lie pointed his finger, and several soldiers unlocked Zhao Lin's shackles.
The moment Zhao Lin broke free, he suddenly attacked the soldier, snatched away the soldier's weapon, jumped up, and stabbed Ao Lie.
Ao Lie was greatly disappointed when he saw this. He grabbed the blade with his bare hands and kicked it away, pushing Zhao Lin towards the palace pillar.
With a bang, Zhao Lin hit the big pillar hard and then landed.
Zhao Lin was seriously injured and vomited blood, but he did not fall to the ground. Instead, he inserted the knife into the ground and fell to a half-kneeling position.
Zhao Lin endured the severe pain, gritted his teeth, and used all his strength to
Strengthen yourself and stand up slowly. His eyes kept staring at Ao Lie.
Ao Lie said disapprovingly: "Zhao Lin, you are really an old antique. What's the use of glaring at me? Is it possible that you can still stare me to death?"
"Ao Lie, I will never let you go even if I'm a ghost."
After Zhao Lin finished shouting this sentence, he suddenly wiped his neck with a knife.
"Whoa!" Blood splattered all over the ground.
Zhao Lin's wives and children collapsed and cried.
The former Northeastern King and the leader of Zhao finally chose to commit suicide.
Ao Lie looked unhappy now and kept cursing at Zhao Lin: "Idiot, old antique, stubborn..."
At this time, Guo Jia hurried over. When he saw the scene in front of him, he lost his temper: "How could this happen? Why don't we discuss it carefully?"
"I didn't kill him, he committed suicide." Ao Lie argued.
"Oh." Guo Jia was so angry that he couldn't say anything. He ran to Zhao Lin and pressed his neck with his hands, trying to stop the bleeding. But the wound on the neck was too deep, almost half of the neck was cut, and the bleeding couldn't be stopped at all. Now unless there is someone with super healing powers, no one can save Zhao Lin.
But Zhao Lin was also awesome. After seeing Guo Jia, he actually forced himself to use his last strength to try to hold on for a few more minutes.
Zhao Lin grabbed Guo Jia's hand and wanted to speak, but couldn't say anything because his throat was cut. So he pointed desperately at their wives and children, and then looked at Guo Jia with tears. Although he said nothing, his eyes were filled with the most sincere pleading.
A few seconds later, Zhao Lin's combat response suddenly disappeared and he died completely.
Even Guo Jia felt that kind of sadness, pain, and unwillingness.
Guo Jia sighed and shook his head slightly, looking very sad.
As for Ao Lie, he was also in a very unhappy mood. He ordered his subordinates: "Kill the children, and the women will serve as comfort women."
When Guo Jia heard this order, he shouted angrily: "Stop, stop everyone."
"What are you doing?" Ao Lie shouted.
"Zhao Lin is dead, and these people are no longer a threat. Since they are useless, let them all go."
"Let go? Are you kidding me? These children are all the children of Zhao Lin. Although they are only two or three years old now, they will definitely seek revenge from me when they grow up. So we must kill them now and eradicate the roots."
"How are you sure that they will seek revenge on you? Moreover, you, the majestic King Lie, have already controlled the entire Zhao Kingdom. Are you afraid of these three-year-old children? Will they have the opportunity to seek revenge on you when they grow up? Can you? Can't you stop talking about your cruelty in such a high-sounding way?"
"Guo Jia, you are brave!" Ao Lie pointed at Guo Jia and said angrily.
"Prince Lie, I beg you, let these people go. They pose no threat to you."
"Are you too benevolent as a woman? Have we killed too few people along the way? Why are you pretending to be a saint now?" Ao Lie said angrily.
"I am indeed not a saint, but Zhao Lin is a real man. The reason why he committed suicide was because he hoped that you could let his family live."
"If he wants me to let his family live, then what he should do is surrender, not commit suicide."
"I don't want to argue about Zhao Lin's motive for committing suicide. In short, these women and children are innocent. I beg you to show some virtue."
"You...you...you really made me mad." Ao Lie was so angry that his breathing became short.
However, after dozens of seconds, Ao Lie sighed and finally ordered the release of all Zhao Lin's family members.
This is Ao Lie, who is cruel by nature, loves war, and kills innocent people indiscriminately. However, as long as Guo Jia speaks seriously, Ao Lie will eventually obey.
Because of this, no matter what Ao Lie does, Guo Jia will still loyally assist him.
