As soon as Lu Qingxufang walked out, the invisible pressure made the imperial guards on the mountain feel suffocated, and no one dared to look at him.
Looking at the mountain pass that was tightly guarded by the Forbidden Army, Lu Qingxu stepped forward, grabbed a boulder weighing several thousand kilograms with both hands, and threw it violently.
The huge boulder fell to the ground like a wave, exploding at the obstacle set up by the forbidden army at the mountain pass.
The fortifications of the Forbidden Army were directly breached.
Several Forbidden Soldiers were unable to evade and were directly smashed into pulp.
When the rebels saw this, their morale was greatly boosted.
After Lu Qingxu struck, he did not stop. He raised a six-stone bow with his backhand, used three javelins as arrows, opened the bow and nocked the arrows, and fired out.
Three arrows flew out and directly broke the three most conspicuous flagpoles of the Forbidden Army.
Suddenly without the military flag, the Forbidden Army was in a state of confusion, and the commanders' ability to organize manpower plummeted.
At this point, Lu Qingxu no longer took action, but waved his hand and said:
"attack!"
The rebels with high morale rushed towards the mountain pass where the gap was opened.
There was a problem with the order linking up and down the Forbidden Army, and the reaction was slow. Only a few people subconsciously blocked it, but how could they stop the rebels.
The mountain pass was ultimately unable to be defended and was captured by the rebels.
Now, the defense of the Forbidden Army is no longer so easy. The Forbidden Army, which has lost its greatest geographical advantage, can only fight to the end with the rebels.
The Forbidden Army knew that they had no way to retreat. Although they had no command, they were still fighting the enemy bravely.
On the rebel side, Lu Qingxu rode his horse to supervise the battle. He was like a pillar in the army, giving everyone confidence and wanting to kill the enemy.
In addition, the rebels were also blessed with heavy rewards. Even when facing the forbidden army's counterattack, they were not overwhelmed in terms of momentum.
General Dong made it very clear when he came that, in addition to the emperor, whoever kills a relative of the emperor, a civil and military official, can be granted an official position of the same status.
Therefore, in the eyes of the rebels, the opposite side is not a person at all, but a moving treasure house, all of which are living glory and wealth!
With such a huge reward, how can you not be brave?
The emperor and nobles on the mountain saw signs that the enemy troops were coming to kill them, and they were all worried.
Uncle Guo pulled the sleeve of Patriarch Chang with a nervous look on his face:
"Old Chang, you always have ideas, come up with a solution!"
The leader of the Chang family is full of ingenuity when it comes to scheming, plundering, and bullying the common people. But in the face of such a situation, where is the solution?
There was nothing I could do, and at the same time, I was filled with regret. If I had known better, I might as well have surrendered to the rebels first, and maybe I could have made a name for myself.
It's better now. I'm trapped here by the rebels, and I'm about to die. I feel regret and fear in my heart.
All the nobles and nobles were extremely anxious, and many people had even proposed the idea of "false surrender".
It may sound like a false surrender, but in fact everyone knows that if you surrender now, you may not have a chance to turn around in the future.
Li Rang, a "dead eunuch" and "eggless thing" in the eyes of the world, was extremely stubborn at this time and determined not to surrender.
In fact, they are forced to have no choice. The nobles are still valuable and can survive after surrendering.
But he can't. If he surrenders, he will only die if there is no use value.
He didn't want to surrender, but the emperor did.
Yes, the emperor also wanted to surrender.
He actually didn't like being the emperor. He only took this position because several of his brothers died young or died in internal fighting. He was the only one who had no ambition and hung out with women every day, but he survived.
After inheriting the throne, he had no idea of governing the country. He would let whoever pleased him take charge.
To him, it doesn't matter if the country is destroyed, as long as the other party can guarantee that he can live happily in the future, it doesn't matter whether he is the emperor or not.
Hearing that the emperor also advocated surrender, Li Rang became anxious and spoke out to dissuade him.
But this is obviously useless. With the unanimous consent of the emperor and the nobles, what can he, a eunuch who relies on the emperor for his life, do?
Although they decided to surrender, who would negotiate with the rebels became a big problem.
The nobles were all afraid of death, and no one dared to risk contact with the rebels at this time.
After exchanging blame for a long time, they finally pushed the head of the Chang family out.
He has the lowest status among those present, and he is a civil servant. He is eloquent and suitable for negotiation.
The head of the Chang family was naturally reluctant, but obviously he couldn't disobey.
Li Rang was afraid that he would defect directly, so he sent two eunuchs to follow him.
Those two eunuchs are both masters. If the Chang family leader shows any sign of betrayal, they will kill him.
Looking at the rebels at the bottom of the mountain, they have already climbed more than thirty feet and are almost halfway up the mountain. The situation is extremely dangerous.
With the decision made, the emperor and nobles immediately raised the white flag and conveyed their intention to surrender to the rebels.
Seeing this, Lu Qingxu at the foot of the mountain ordered a temporary halt to the attack.
After the truce between the two sides, they did not rush to let the envoy from Xu State come over. Instead, they offered to let the imperial army retreat thirty feet first to show their sincerity.
Retreating another thirty feet would mean that the imperial army completely lost its geographical advantage and became completely passive and vulnerable to beatings.
However, neither the emperor nor the nobles understood the battle formation. They felt that this was a sign of negotiation and ordered the imperial troops to retreat.
Later, Lu Qingxu asked someone to bring the envoy from the opposite side.
The two eunuchs who followed the Chang family leader were directly hacked to death by the rebels. The Chang family leader was frightened and sweating profusely.
The head of the Chang family trembled with fear when he saw the rebels around him all looking ferocious, as if they were capable of cannibalism.
When he arrived in front of Lu Qingxu, he was speechless. He stood in front of the horse, his buttocks trembling, and before he knew it, he peed his pants.
Lu Qingxu's gaze was like a ferocious beast in the world. With just one look, the head of the Chang family was so frightened that he fell to the ground.
"Tell them that if they want to surrender, they must first let the imperial guards throw their weapons down the mountain."
After saying that, he directly asked his soldiers to drag the head of the Chang family out and throw him in front of the Forbidden Army formation.
The head of the Chang family, who was almost frightened to death, quickly told the other party's conditions and said that they must comply with them, otherwise they would be dead.
Everyone gathered together to discuss, and except for Li Rang who said he could not comply, everyone else agreed to throw away their weapons.
Li Rang was anxious, but it was in vain. Even the emperor was frightened. What could he, a eunuch, do?
Soon, the Imperial Guards were seen throwing their weapons off the cliff...
Seeing that all the weapons and armors of the imperial guards were thrown away, and each one of them looked like a featherless duck, there was a burst of ridicule from the rebels.
Lu Qingxu rode a black snow horse to the front of the formation and looked towards the opposite side.
The emperor and nobles also looked at Lu Qingxu, and no one dared to look at him.
Seeing the group of people across from him looking so frightened, Lu Qingxu's eyes were full of contempt and he slowly said:
"My foster father read the history books and found that any new dynasty that fails to thoroughly clean up the remnants of the previous dynasty will be short-lived.
On the contrary, a new dynasty that completely eliminates the remnants of the previous dynasty can often survive for hundreds of years.
My adoptive father often told me that he wanted to establish an immortal dynasty that would last for eternity.
If such a dynasty is to be established, the remnants of the previous dynasty must be exterminated.
Before leaving, the adoptive father repeatedly emphasized that no one should be left alive.
Now that you have no weapons, presumably things will be much easier. "
Lu Qingxu's words were like an iron hammer, hitting the hearts of everyone on the opposite side. Whether they were the emperor, nobles, maids, eunuchs, or imperial guards, their faces were all pale and horrified.
Lu Qingxu ignored that and waved his hand to order the attack.
This time, it was a completely one-sided massacre.
The Forbidden Army without weapons turned into little chickens in front of the rebels, and they were slaughtered wantonly.
Li Rang is very skilled in martial arts, but he knows that no matter how powerful a master is, he is just a cloud in front of the army, especially since the rebels have many good fighters, so the advantage of a so-called master is even smaller.
Not to mention, with Lu Qingxu, the best general in the world, they had no chance of winning.
Li Rang, who was filled with despair, did not give up the hope of surviving in death. He grabbed the emperor and ran to the top of the mountain.
"My beloved concubine, my beloved concubine!"
The emperor was dragged away by Li Rang, but he was separated from Concubine Su who had been following him, and he immediately became anxious.
At this time, Li Rang was not in the mood to care about the concubine, so he dragged the emperor and ran away.
Concubine Su ran to the top of the mountain with other nobles, very panicked.
At this time, everyone only cares about themselves, and there is no distinction between high and low.
Many domestic slaves kicked their masters down in order to survive.
The queen in the crowd was also abandoned by the two master maids who were originally responsible for protecting her.
The desperate queen knew she couldn't run away. When she saw Concubine Su who was still running in the crowd, she felt extremely dissatisfied. She thought she was going to die anyway, so she might as well kill this bitch first to relieve her hatred!
Picking up a stone from the ground, he rushed towards Concubine Su.
Concubine Su, who was running away, didn't know that someone was going to attack her from behind. The queen came behind Concubine Su smoothly, raised a stone and hit Concubine Su on the back of her head.
Logically speaking, this hateful blow would definitely kill Concubine Su.
At this moment, a pair of evil eyes suddenly appeared on the back of Su Fei's head.
The eyes met the queen's, and the queen's expression flickered, her hands relaxed, and the stone fell to the ground.
The next moment, the queen's luck surged, immediately returning her to normal.
The evil eyes on the back of Su Fei's head disappeared.
But because of this hesitation, the Queen missed the opportunity to attack Concubine Su, who had already run some distance away.
Concubine Su, who was running away wholeheartedly, did not notice all this and just ran for her life in panic.
The queen was still immersed in the strangeness she had just seen. In addition, her feet had been bound since she was a child, so naturally she couldn't run.
Just like that, he was pushed to the ground by the rebels who were chasing him.
When the rebels saw it was a woman, they naturally followed the consistent principle of raping first and killing later, and wanted to feel comfortable first.
These people are shrouded in evil spirits and chaos, and will not be affected by the queen's national fate.
The majestic queen died like this with such a useless fate...
On the mountain in the distance, Ye Ming, who had been paying attention to the situation on the other side, changed his expression, not because of the queen's death, but because, at that moment, he felt the aura of suspicion appearing.
To be sure, that is one of the same kind!
"I didn't expect that there would be such a presence lurking around the emperor of a country. What a surprise."
I have to say that Ye Ming is a little envious of this kind of person lurking around the emperor.
Needless to say, this is equivalent to practicing in a cave. This kind of cultivation is absolutely extraordinary!
While observing, Ye Ming suddenly opened his eyes and looked at someone over there.
Another one also showed up...
On the barren mountain, the nobles had been killed by the rebels who had caught up. As for the others, they basically did not survive.
When the head of the Chang family climbed up a steep slope with Uncle Guo, he did not care and reached out to pull Uncle Guo down so that he could go up by himself.
But as soon as he touched uncle Guo's clothes, he felt a strange force push him away.
The master of the Chang family lost his hand, slipped and fell to the ground, unable to climb up the slope.
Before he could think more about what strange situation that was, he was hit by a stray arrow in the back of the neck and died on the spot.
Uncle Guo climbed up successfully. Uncle Guo, who was panicked, wanted to continue running, but found that there was no way.
We have reached the highest point of the mountain. There are only the emperor, Li Rang and the frightened Concubine Su on this slope.
Including himself, there were only four people.
Looking back, the rebels had already arrived.
The people below, except for some women who were being insulted, have all been killed.
Lu Qingxu rode his horse and came down the slope slowly, looking at the people on the slope with calm and indifferent eyes.
The soldiers around him raised their bows and were about to shoot the emperor and others.
At this moment, I suddenly saw the divine light on Uncle Guo's body shining brightly, with terrifying power, and a voice full of ethereal and majestic sounds.
"Who disturbed my slumber?"
...
