However, after not seeing each other for a short period of time, Nangong Jian suddenly seemed to have aged ten years. His whole body became rickety and his breath became very depressed.
"General Nangong, Your Majesty, what happened to him? Where is he now?"
After seeing Nangong Jian, Dongfangcheng couldn't help but ask in a heavy tone.
However, when faced with Dongfangcheng's inquiry, Nangong Jian did not answer his question, but suddenly took out Dongfang Yingzheng's token.
"Your Majesty has ordered that Dong Zhan and his trusted generals betray the Xia Kingdom. General Dongfang City quickly put down the rebellion and maintained stability in the army."
Hearing Nangong Jian's words, Dongfang Cheng's face couldn't help but become extremely ugly. Things were already heading towards the worst outcome he expected.
Dong Zhan's trusted troops were stationed in the northern part of the city wall of Shuangfengguan Fortress, which was a very important part of the entire fortress defense.
If Dong Zhan's troops all rebelled with him, then the security of Shuangfeng Pass Fortress would be in great danger, and it would even directly lead to the loss of the fortress.
However, this is not what Dongfang City is most worried about. Dong Zhan's rebellion must have been premeditated.
So he must have had a detailed plan in mind when he tried to win Dongfang Yingzheng's trust with a bitter trick in the council hall.
Now that the news of his rebellion can be conveyed by Nangong Jian, Dongfang Yingzheng's situation has obviously become very bad.
"General Nangong, tell me directly now, Your Majesty, how is he?"
Even though Dongfang City had been on the battlefield for a long time and had already developed a heart of stone, at this moment, when he looked at Nangong Jian, his tone became trembling.
However, facing Dongfang City's inquiry, Nangong Jian's expression changed, but he did not tell Dongfang City the accurate news.
He also knew in his heart that the disappearance of Dongfang Yingzheng and the death of Dongfang Yingzheng are two completely different concepts. If the news is told to Dongfang City now, once it spreads, the Shuangfengguan Fortress will be finished!
"Old General, now the fortress is in danger. Whether our Xia Kingdom can survive this difficulty is all in the hands of the old general. I also ask the old general to quickly put down the rebellion."
Nangong Jian pretended not to hear Dongfang City's question at this time and said calmly.
After hearing Nangong Jian's words, Dongfang Cheng's face turned pale. He wanted to ask more, but at this moment.
"Report!"
A soldier covered in blood stumbled into the command post. When he saw Dongfang City, he collapsed to the ground.
"Commander, the defensive troops on the northern city wall have rebelled and have lit emergency smoke. Now there is chaos on the city wall!"
After saying that, the soldier lying on the ground tilted his neck and his whole body was lifeless.
It was obvious that this soldier had tried his best to send the message back, but now that he had taken his last breath, the power that kept him alive was gone.
"Damn it!"
After Dongfangcheng roared angrily, he smashed the table in the command post into pieces.
"Assemble the security forces immediately. I'm going to kill these traitors myself!"
With that said, Dongfang City did not even wait for the security forces to gather, and flew out of the command post.
Nangong Jian's performance was obvious enough. The current situation of Dongfang Yingzheng was definitely in danger, but no matter how sad he felt in his heart, he knew that he must defend the Shuangfengguan Fortress.
Otherwise, once the Shuangfengguan fortress is broken, Zhao's army can march straight in and face the royal city. The Xia Kingdom that his Dongfang family has guarded for generations will be finished!
And just after Dongfang City left the command post, the northern wall of Shuangfengguan Fortress had turned into a hell on earth.
The corpses of countless Xia soldiers lay scattered on the cold ground. Some of them had not even unsheathed their weapons, and they died with doubts on their faces.
Even to the end of their lives, they could not believe that those comrades who had known each other for many years would betray the Xia Kingdom and kill them without hesitation.
The blood had completely covered the ground of the city wall at this time, and countless corpses were soaked in the pool of blood.
Outside an arrow tower on the northern city wall, a scarred general was leading the few remaining soldiers to resist the rebel attack. At this time, the top of the arrow tower was emitting a column of smoke that shot straight into the sky.
The armor on his body has become torn to pieces, and there is no good spot on his body. However, facing dozens of times more enemies, he still wields the knife silently.
After killing dozens of rebels in a row, his surroundings were cleared. At this moment, no one dared to continue to attack.
"Guan Sheng, General Dong thinks that you are a lieutenant who has followed him for many years and has outstanding abilities, so I will give you a chance to submit."
At this time, a bald general wearing armor walked out from the crowd of rebels. He looked at the crumbling Guan Sheng and said in a cold tone:
"You'd better stop being so stubborn!"
Hearing the words of the bald general, Guan Sheng showed a look of disdain on his face.
There were ten generals in Xia's army, and under each general, there were five deputy generals who managed and assisted the army.
Guan Sheng, the dead Gao Fei, and the bald general who is now trying to persuade Guan Sheng to surrender are all Dong Zhan's lieutenants.
However, unlike Guan Sheng and the dead Gao Fei, this lieutenant, together with the other two, had long been secretly having an affair with Dong Zhan.
"Pooh!"
Looking at his former comrades, Guan Sheng's face became more and more contemptuous.
"Dong Zhan is a traitorous thief who seeks glory. Even if I die, I will never betray the Xia Kingdom like you, a boneless guy!"
As he spoke, Guan Sheng spat hard.
"Don't be ignorant, Guan Sheng, if you don't get out of the way, don't blame me for not caring about our former comrades!"
After hearing Guan Sheng's words, the bald general's face became extremely ugly. He clenched the sword in his hand and looked at Guan Sheng fiercely.
However, facing the threat of the bald general, Guan Sheng couldn't help laughing.
"Comrade!"
"Hahaha…"
"I only regret that I am blind now, because I would have called you a brother-in-law with a wolf-hearted guy like you before!"
"If you have the ability, just let your horse come over!"
With that said, Guan Shengyun poured all his remaining energy into the long sword.
"good!"
"Since you want to die, then I will grant it to you!"
When the bald general heard this, he said in a cold tone. As he said that, he also activated his Yuanli, and then rushed towards Guan Sheng.
The two men quickly fought together, but Guan Sheng had gone through a series of hard battles, and the energy in his body had been exhausted. Coupled with the numerous injuries on his body, he fell into a disadvantage in just a few moments.
After a few more moves, Guan Sheng was completely exhausted, and the long knife in his hand was knocked out. At the same time, the bald general took advantage of the situation and cut off one of Guan Sheng's arms.
Then, he kicked Guan Sheng to the ground.
